file distribution protocol.
BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer (P2P) file distribution protocolBitTorrent is a method of distributing large amounts of data widely without the original distributor incurring the whole of
the corresponding costs of hardware, hosting and bandwidth resources. Instead of the distributor alone servicing each recipient, under BitTorrent the recipients each also supply
data to newer recipients, thus significantly reducing the cost and burden on any given individual source as well as
providing redundancy against system problems, and reducing dependence upon the original distributor.

Harnessing Collective Intelligence
eBay enables occasional transactions of only a few dollars between single individuals, acting as an automated intermediary.
Napster (though shut down for legal reasons) built its network not by building a centralized song database, but by architecting a system in such a way that every downloader also became a server, and thus grew the network.

RSS
RSS is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated digital content, such as blogs, news feeds or podcasts.Users of RSS content use programs called feed 'readers' or 'aggregators': the user 'subscribes' to a feed by supplying to their reader a link to the feed; the reader can then check the user's subscribed feeds to see if any of those feeds have new content since the last time it checked, and if so, retrieve that content and present it to the user.
