Hmm.. seems like Blogspot is down. I just tried to update my IsoG -blog and the whole page is empty. Anybody else who could confirm this?
I can access the Blogspot dashboard, no problem, but the blogs seem to be down - or at least mine is.
UPDATE: And after posting this it started working - oh well, promotion never hurts :-)
No Comments »I calculated manually the current bandwidth usage approximately being used/created by my tracker. In about 30 hours 21 Gigabytes has been downloaded through my tracker - that’s a lot!
And this has created 11 megabytes of bandwidth usage on my site. Got to love the BitTorrent.

“This contest spotlights the treasure trove of material available in the public domain,” says Nicholas Bergson-Shilcock of FreeCulture.org. “When you combine that with all of the new work that today’s artists are releasing under the Creative Commons alternative copyright system, it gives other creators a broad range of material to incorporate into their own work.”
Contest entrants will Bring Back Dead Art in three quick steps:
1) Download a piece of George Romero¹s classic horror flick Night of the Living Dead;
2) Combine with a clip from Amid the Dead, a student-produced 2003 homage to Romero, then:
3) Make an entirely new piece of art. From comic shorts to music videos, fake movie trailers to faux posters, the only limits are placed by the artist¹s imagination. And artists aren¹t confined to using only these two movies — any freely-available artistic content is fair game.Src: FreeCulture press release
I am hosting the torrents on my torrent tracker. I was a bit late to reply and getting the torrents hosted, I realised only yesterday the need for the tracker, as we discussed it on #freeculture IRC-channel. I’m happy to help, making the FreeCulture movement a truly international one :-)
