In a lot of ways, BitTorrent is one of the niftiest P2P type applications I've seen. It's method of sharing bandwidth is very intelligent, and according to the article on slashdot where it's mentioned, it seems to be working pretty well.

For kicks, I installed it on one of my Debian box (apt-get install bittorrent), and I'm gonna play with it a little. ;-)
