Peer to peer softwares are the most popular way of downloading large data from the internet. In a p2p architecture you download files not from a big server consisting of million files and thousand users requestng it, But a group of peers just like you. In return you should also share those files which you have downloaded from other peers.

Why p2p architecture?

The question arises that why you should go for p2p softwares when you can download from rapidshare, megaupload and others and what is the difference between the two.

The problem arises in a server client architecture like RapidShare when many a thousand clients request for a same file. There is a severe load on server to transfer all files to all those clients and a high usage of bandwith on server side. If the server can't accomodate so many connections then it will simply start refusing them.

On the other hand in a p2p environment a client can request same file from many different peers. Downloading speed increases drastically and there is no load centralized system. A peer can start transferring file as soon as it gets one. So there will be no wastage of bandwith and problem of load on a single server.

Following are the best p2p softwares available

LimeWire

LimeWire is the world's fastest P2P file-sharing application for all types of computer files, including music, video, pictures, games, and text documents. Other features include dynamic querying, file previews during download, advanced techniques for locating rare files, and an easy, clean user interface.

BitComet

BitComet is a fast and easy-to-use BitTorrent/HTTP/FTP download client. It is P2P file-sharing freeware and one of the most popular P2P protocols designed for high-speed distribution. BitComet supports simultaneous downloads, DHT networks (trackerless), a download queue, selected downloads in the Torrent package, fast-resume, disk caching, speed limits, auto port mapping, proxies, and IP filtering.

uTorrent

uTorrent is a powerful and efficient BitTorrent client for Windows. Most of the features present in other BitTorrent clients are present in uTorrent, including bandwidth prioritization, scheduling, RSS auto-downloading, and Mainline DHT. Additionally, uTorrent supports the protocol encryption joint specification and peer exchange. Unlike many torrent clients, it does not hog valuable system resources--typically using less than 6MB of memory, allowing you to use the computer as if it weren't there at all.

BitTorrent

BitTorrent's software client allows you to quickly download high-quality digital content such as video, music, and games. Available in over 20 languages, it leverages our community of over 70 million users to securely deliver files to your PC faster than anything else out there.

Features include detailed graphs and stats on the health of digital media files provide you a safer, more controlled downloading experience, local peer discovery and automatic port mapping increase file transfer speed without the need to reconfigure routers or other hardware, and dynamic bandwidth management allows you to download content without disrupting Web browsing, e-mail, or other applications.

eMule

eMule is one of the biggest and most reliable peer-to-peer file sharing clients around the world. Thanks to it's open source policy many developers are able to contribute to the project, making the network more efficient with each release. eMule is a filesharing client which is based on the eDonkey2000 network, but offers more features than the standard eDonkey client.

BitLord

BitLord is a p2p file-sharing program fully compatible with .torrent files, which is one of the most popular p2p protocol designed for high-speed distribution of 100MB or GB-sized files. BitLord supports simultaneous downloads, download queue, selected downloads in torrent package, fast-resume, chatting, disk cache, speed limits, port mapping, proxy, and IP-filter. Version 1.1 adds integrated Web browser.

p2p softwares have made it possible to download data in GBs. It appears to be efficient and more reliable source of downloading. Ofcourse there are disadvantages of p2p softwares as well such as malwares and viruses in files, no central authority to guarantee quality of file but still we love it.

Source: Respective owners of the softwares mentioned. The order of the list is defined as the most downloaded softwares at download.com from LimeWire the hoghest downloaded to BitlLord the lowest one.

I got an idea of writing this blog post when once again a person asked me How to earn money online. I once again repeated that the same old story. So here it goes again.

It would be nice to indicate that this is not a very easy and fast method of earning online. But still you can make a lot if you are a rite type of person for it.

Its nothing that fancy. Follow these steps :


1)Make a blog like this one

Most of you I guess do not know web designing. But no problem here comes a magic website called a blog. You just don't have to care about its designing and developing. Its a free piece of software that is made for you and you will just have to put your content in it. Most famous of these are Wordpress, Blogger which I am using, ThinkPad and LiveJournal. I suggest you blogger as a beginner . Read my article on why I suggested blogger. Click here to signup for blogger.

2)Select a template
Select a nice and cool looking theme for you blog. It may have a good effect on reader's eye. Your theme should also contain necessary gadgets like recent posts,top comments etc and some icons like that of rss or follow me on twitter. Audience will find it easier to find you. Good theme should be search engine friendly that means your pages have good chances of getting into search engines.

3)Define your target audience
This is perhaps the most difficult part in the initiation of your business. You have to think of one such topic for which you can write more very effortlessly and any time. Apart from this you should also take care that there is a handsome amount of people interested in that topic. So your choice depends upon how well you know a particular subject and how well demanded it is. Try to be unique or at least get into less saturated domain.

4)Start posting quality content regularly
Thats the most toughest part. Start writing and creating content. Create killer posts which attract further visitors for your site. Offer something which in which people may be interested in. Remember audience won't like whatever you like unless they find something of their benefit in it. You can find quality content for your subject from Internet. Do your research and always give your customers value so they become your loyal customers and visit you again. Remember traffic on your blog is directly proportional to quality of your content.

5)Put ads on your blog
You have setup a blog and written few posts for it. Now comes the part on how to earn from it. You can place ads on your blog. There are lots of advertising services available but for a beginner I will suggest Google's adsense. Because most other services have certain traffic requirements which adsense does not cater for. So google's adsense program is perfect. Signup with google adsense. Make ads and paste ad code on your blog. You can track you income,impressions and clicks from your adsense account. Just make sure you comply with adsense term of services. Fake clicks on your own ads and other cheating techniques will get your account banned from this beautiful service. Once you make your $100 they will send you your payment.

6)Marketing and traffic gathering
You have quality content on your blog and ads running. Now what you need is traffic of visitors. Not just visitor I say quality visitors. Marketing doesn't mean you go around on irc or orkut and spam around about your blog. That way you won't get good readers but just passers by who might have no interest in your blog. As a matter of good approach I suggest you following ways to get traffic.

• Search engines where thousand of people enters their query every second, target them.
• Social networking sites, Get decent traffic from websites such as facebook.
• Social bookmarking websites like digg,delicious and stumbleupon can give you a huge amount of traffic if your story become a hit.
• Tell friend bloggers to link you.
• Feed your latest post updates on twitter . Use twitterfeed for automatic updates.
• Leave comments on high traffic forums. First few comments have good chances of getting clicked.
  

7)Get your reward $$
If you have worked hard then you'll surely get your reward. There are different modes of payment for different advertising services. As far as google ads is concerned you can receive a check or if you live in Pakistan the most feasible mode is of Western union money transfer. You can collect your money from western union as soon as google pays you. But minimum payout for google is 100$.

I wish you all best of luck. If you need any kind of assistance ping me. I will try to help you to my best.

It is really amazing to see that most of the world's famous people were a college dropouts. It might be a coincident. Here is a list of 7 most famous college dropout billionaires.


William Henry Gates III (1955-), along with Paul Allen, co-founded Microsoft Corporation, the world's largest software maker. Bill Gates, the wealthiest person in the world with an estimated net worth of $480 crores (Rs 211,200 crore!), is probably the best-known college dropout.
Gates attended an exclusive prep school in Seattle, went on to study at Harvard University, then dropped out to pursue software development. As students in the mid-70s, he and Paul Allen wrote the original Altair BASIC interpreter for the Altair 8800, the first commercially successful PC.
In 1975, Micro-Soft - later Microsoft Corporation - was born. Three decades on, Gates has been Number One on the Forbes 400 for over a dozen years. And here's something you probably didn't know: The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation currently provides 90 per cent of the world budget for the attempted eradication of polio.


Lawrence Joseph Ellison (1944-), co-founder and CEO of Oracle Corporation, founded his company in 1977 with a sum of $2,000. Once a school dropout, he is now, according to Forbes, one of the richest people in America with a net worth of around $184 crores. The figure also makes him the ninth richest in the world.
As a young man, Ellison worked for the Ampex Corporation, where one of his projects was a database for the CIA. He called it Oracle, a name he was to reuse years later for the company that made him famous.
Interestingly, the organisation's initial release was Oracle 2. The number supposedly implied that all bugs had been eliminated from an earlier version.
Ellison is quite a colourful man, and has long dabbled in all kinds of things. Want to learn more? Try his biography, The Difference Between God and Larry Ellison.


Dhirajlal Hirachand Ambani (1932-2002) was born into the family of a schoolteacher. It was a family of modest means. When he turned 16, Dhirubhai moved to Aden, working first as a gas-station attendant, then as a clerk in an oil company.
He returned to India at 26, starting a business with a meagre capital of $375. By the time of his demise, his company - Reliance Industries Ltd - had grown to become an empire, with an estimated annual turnover of $120 crores!
Dhirubhai was, in his lifetime, conferred the Indian Entrepreneur of the 20th Century Award by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry. A Times of India poll in the year 2000 also voted him one of the biggest creators of wealth in this century.
Dhirubhai's is not just the usual rags-to-riches story. He will be remembered as the one who rewrote Indian corporate history and built a truly global corporate group. He is also credited with having single-handedly breathed life into the Indian stock markets and bringing in thousands of investors to the bourses.

Steven Paul Jobs (1955-) and Apple Computer are names that have long gone together.
Born in the United States to an unknown Egyptian-Arab father, Jobs was adopted soon after birth. After graduating high school, he enrolled in Reed College, dropping out after one semester.
In 1976, 21-year-old Jobs and 26-year old Steve Wozniak founded Apple Computer Co. in the family garage. Jobs revolutionised the industry by popularising the concept of home computers.
By 1984, the Macintosh was introduced. He had an influential role in the building of the World-Wide Web, and also happens to be Chairman and CEO of Pixar Animation Studios.
Today, with the iPod, Apple is bigger than ever. Incidentally, Jobs worked for several years at an annual salary of $1. It got him a listing in the Guinness Book as `Lowest Paid Chief Executive Officer.' He was once gifted a $9 crores jet by the company though. And his net worth? Moer than $3 billion.



Michael Saul Dell (1965- ) joined the University of Texas at Austin with the intention of becoming a physician. While studying there, he started a computer company in his dormitory, calling it PC's Limited. By the time he turned 19, it had notched up enough success to prompt Dell to dropout.
In 1987, PC's Limited changed its name to Dell Computer Corporation. By 2003, Dell, Inc. was the world's most profitable PC manufacturer.
Dell has won more than his fair share of accolades, including Man of the Year from PC Magazine and EM>CEO of the Year from Financial World . Forbes, in 2005, lists him as the 18th richest in the world with a net worth of around $1600 Crores. Not bad for just another dropout.








Here's something not many people know about Subhash Chandra Goel : The Zee chairman dropped out after standard 12.
Subhash Chandra started his own vegetable oils unit at 19. It was, in a manner of speaking, his first job. Years later, a casual visit to a friend at Doordarshan gave him the idea of starting his own broadcasting company. We all know how that story ran.
Chandra knew nothing about programming, distribution or film rights. What he did understand quite well was the Indian sensibility though. Funded by UK businessmen, Zee came into being as India's first satellite TV network.
Today, it reaches 320 lakhs homes, connecting with 20 crores people in South Asia alone. The network also covers Asians in America, the Middle East, Europe, Australia and Africa, making this dropout a very rich one.








Mark Elliot Zuckerberg, (born May 14, 1984) is an American computer programmer and entrepreneur. A Harvard dropout, he is credited with developing and launching the online social networking website Facebook with the help of fellow Harvard student and computer science major Andrew McCollum as well as roommates Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes. He now serves as Facebook's CEO. In 2008, Forbes Magazine declared him "the youngest billionaire on earth and possibly the youngest self-made billionaire ever", with an estimated net worth of $1.5 billion USD.







Although they all were college dropouts and successful but that doesn't means that for being a billionaire you should be a dropout. There are only very few of the dropouts who were so super rich in thier professional life.

Google is the biggest and most useful way to get visitors to your web site. All around the world bloggers and big internet marketers use google to promote their products. So if you have a site and want to attract a lot of visitors then you should learn these tricks to get yourself noticed by google crawlers.

Add your url and feeds to google
If you are at blogger or wordpress ( free hosted ) then your chances are much greater that your site will be added but for others you have to follow one of these to get noticed . So first step I think Is to go and add your url at http://www.google.com/addurl/ and also your feeds ie rss/atom feeds of your blog in place of sitemap. The process might take time but your url will be added eventually.

Post in do-follow forums,blogs etc
A do-follow blog is some blog that allows crawlers and spiders to pass through links posted at them. For example if you post a link at a do follow forum then the google bot while crawling to that site will also reach your site and crawl through it. So leave your signature along with url at every forum/blog you visit and be active in blogosphere. Some blog are no-follow. They won’t allow search engines to crawl through other sites as it could spoil their image.

Add meta tags
You might have seen meta-tags in html source of many web sites. These tags contains keyword for which your site will be searched and description of your page that will appear in search result. If you are not good at html here is a very good utility that will help you make your Meta tags http://vancouver-webpages.com/META/mk-metas.html . Put the resulting html inside head tag of your pages.

Keyword in title of the page
The first thing google bot notices is the title of the page so keep it short and it should contains keywords for which you want to direct the visitors to your site.


Optimize title of your posts
Nearly all search engines are h1 tag friendly so while crawling to your content they get the summary out of these tags. So make it optimized with respect to your story/blog post. It should contain all the important keyword of your post as it will be shown in title of the page and in search engine result page also. So a good post title has a good chance of attracting visitor to click on your site.

Create more and more quality and unique content
Only meta tags are not gonna explain search engines about your site and frankly speaking due to people fooling search engines with wrong keywords to attract more traffic many search engine do not rely on meta tags. Instead they go through content of the page .So write and create quality content. Use your keywords effectively in your content. But do not make your readers suffer. Believe me if you write solely for search engines then you are not gonna attain loyal readers. Be genuine and be yourself.

Add alt tags to images
For your images to come in search engine results make sure you use alt attribute in image tags. And write description about images in that attribute. Example
Remember search engine’s crawlers are no human they won’t understand what the image is about unless you explain.

Spam around Orkut/irc or other high traffic zone
This is the most weirdest thing. It can spoil your blog’s image. There are other alternatives to these which I will explain in later posts.
But let me share with you my experience. I was running a blog with my friend . The problem was that all its pages were not coming in google’s index. But one day my friend spammed around in orkut community in front of lacs of visitors. Some people were irritated due to this. But the next day I saw in my blog stats. Along with visitors many Google bots also crawled and all the pages were there in google’s index. So it did work . And now google find it easy to crawl through that site :) . But still I won’t commit that again .


Above were some of the tips that I found after lot of research. They will just make sure that you get into search engines and people can find you from any part of the world. For high rankings in search engines.http://techasad.blogspot.com/2008/10/how-to-get-yout-pages-in-google-index.html

Blogger and wordpress are the two famous and mostly used blogging platforms . For many new bloggers who do not wish to spend money on domains and web hosting these are the only two options apparently available. Many people start their blogs with wordpress freely hosted service but they forget some very important things which I will discuss in this article.
Here I will describe what are the benefits which I am getting from blogger over other blogging softwares available.

Free from the problems of hosting:
So you don’t know how to upload files through ftp ? or you are sick of messages like “No nodes available for your requests” or “server is down” ? I have seen many a times these messages and now I think why should I bother about hosting when blogger can get my content hosted for free and its 100% reliable. No hassles of uploading scripts and then remembering settings for database, ftp etc
Free to put your ads and earn money:
Many free hosting platforms including wordpress.com do not allow you to post your ads. If you want to put ads on your wordpress blog then you’ll have to host it somewhere where the host allows you to put ads. For beginners I know its not wise to throw money on hosting unless you know you have hundreds of viewers and you’ll earn a lot.
Close coupling with other google services:
Blogger allows you to use many free service on your blog . each and every service of google has has more or less a decent connection with blogger .Adsense, feedburner, picassa and youtube to name a few .
Search engine friendly pages:
Since blogger is a part of google the chances of blogger pages getting into google are higher . After few days of getting your blog up you will have you blog’s pages indexed at google and that’s what I have seen many times .you don’t have to go for any hard work like putting meta tags etc in your pages . But you can do these for further benefits and higher rankings in google.
Thousands of themes and widgets available:
Unlike wordpress you don’t have to choose from given templates. There are thousand of free and premium templates available on Internet and you can customize them further also. Hundreds of widgets are also available or if you want you can put your custom javascript/text for any purpose.
Growing developers and bloggers community:
As more people are getting attracted towards this service the blogger’s community is growing and all the support is available. You can get any of your blogger problem solved in few a minutes very easily. Also there are hundreds of tips and tricks available to spice up your content and attract more visitors.
Use your custom domain:
Its very easy to redirect to your bloggers hosted blog from your custom domains. For example if you have yourname.com then you can access your blog from that domain easily and you don’t have to pay to blogger for it. Your blog will still be hosted there. Unlike wordpress where you have to pay 15$ if you but domain from them.

OK so if I have put much for you guys to get attracted to blogger. In case I have left any important point please do let me know through comments and I’ll add it here. Best wishes for your new blogger’s blog .http://techasad.blogspot.com/2008/10/benefits-of-blogging-on-blogger.html
