P2P Research at Google wrap up and slides

Niall O'Higgins @ 16 July, 2008 (20:50) | BitTorrent Protocol, P2P Software, Piracy Research

I gave a talk at Google/bayPIGgies last week. I was very pleasantly surprised by the turnout – and most of all by the excellent questions asked by the audience. The interest from people at the talk crossed many domains – people were generally curious about many aspects, from security to technical scalability concerns to legal issues.

Four employees from BitTorrent, Inc were present. It was wonderful to have the chance to talk to some of the pioneers in this technology. They seemed very interested in the work we are doing and invited us to call in to their offices in downtown SF some time.

Overall, it was wonderful to have so much interest in our research and to be able to spread some information about BitTorrent and p2p to a wider audience. I believe the talk was recorded on video and should be made available by Google on YouTube or Google Video, however I don’t have the URL just yet. I did the slides in S5 though, and you can view the slides for the p2p research talk at Google here in a regular web browser.
