Torrents anywhere!
I really dig the Azureus BitTorrent client. It’s an awesome little Java application that’s got a ton of great features - including plugins. Now I haven’t played around with too many of the plugins, but the Swing Web Interface (aka WebUI) has to be about the greatest!
With this plugin I’m able to upload .torrent files to my Azureus client at home from anywhere - well, anywhere with Internet access that is. If I’m at the office and something happens to catch my eye, I can quickly start downloading from my client at home! (Don’t want to use up the office bandwidth now, do I?) Or just post a URL to a torrent and off you go! Oh yeah, it supports SSL and basic authentication for security and UPnP for port forwarding if your router supports it - I just have port forwards configured on the router. Also you can run at as a stand alone app too! Sweet!

Don’t you ever post about anything that isn’t computers anymore? I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, you are a big TOOL
