Gary Lerphaut of Prodigem, a marketplace for Torrents (which I blogged about here), has put together the Prodigem Enclosure Puller ( which he blogs about here), an example of Prodigem’s new API. Give it a feed — say, the del.icio.us feed of popular videos — and it will create torrents of every enclosure it finds. As Gary points out, in this example the world (= del.icio.us users) chooses its favorite videos and PEP automatically makes them available as torrents. Again as Gary puts it, it’s Web 2.0 at work, stitching together new apps out of old. [Tags: prodigem delicious folksonomy web2.0 bittorrent]
