Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to inform you of a new web application I launched earlier this
week, which will help with your file releases.  It allows you to post your
new file release and add your download link as the first mirror for the
file.  Then, other mirrors have the ability to download your file and add
their mirror links to the list, effectively building a set of mirrors for
your file.

Yes, this is a new and different concept for many of you, that are used to
services like FilePlanet.  The big difference here, is that this service is
free and maintained by the participating mirror providers, who are able to
register and immediately participate at any time. 

You can think of it like a file mirror wiki of sorts.  Then, on your
website, you can provide a link to your file mirror list on FileFarm.  This
removes the work of maintaining a mirror list yourself and allows you to
focus on support and updates.

http://www.FileFarm.net

Unlike services like FilePlanet, users looking to download your file won't
need a membership, or wait in any lines.  They'll be able to search for the
file and then select the closest mirror.  It's really a win-win-win solution
for those releasing files, those providing mirrors for the files, and for
those looking and downloading the files.

If you have any questions or comments, I'll be on IRC in #FileFarm on
GameSurge (irc.gamesurge.net).
