Musings on the possibility (based on little information) of using BitTorrent as a load distribution network for static HTML resources.
An example would be:
<object data="bittorrent://filelocation/image.png" type="image/png">
<object data="http://www.domain/image.png" type="image/png">
An image served by bittorrent, fallback to traditional HTTP
</object>
</object>
Bittorrent (the Mac OSX client from the bittorrent web site) is weird. Sometimes it'll drop to 0 seeds in 0 peers and stay that way for a long time but if I exit and restart the client, it'll pick up new peers immediately.
Am I doing something wrong? Should I get myself a different client?
