As you can tell, from the photo above, we had to interrupt Patrick Williams for a moment to ask him a few questions about BitTorrent’s Torque.
What was the idea behind Torque?
I wanted to be able to implement my own version of the torrenting experience. Torrent technology belongs at a lower level than it currently is with torrent download managers. All we needed was a bit of glue to make it accessible to web developers, who hopefully can slap some lipstick on this pig.
For you, what’s the coolest thing about it?
The coolest thing about Torque is that now development using BitTorrent technology can be distributed, just like the technology itself.
We’ve played with Paddle Over. Is it possible to jam too hard?
Aw man, if I jam just a little bit I have to ice my back for a week. Protect your lumbar, everybody!
