AllPeers Falls Short of Expectations

The highly anticipated AllPeers extension for FireFox has officially launched in Beta. Their website AllPeers.com was once a hub for early beta testing signup, but now features a flash tutorial and other goodies. The most notable section of the site would be the PeerPressure blog, official AllPeers Blog.

What's disturbing are the number of features that would have been considered basic additions to this extension, as noted by The Grayline.

Some of the more notable features that have been left out of the initial offering are,

  • interface for handling standard torrents.
  • a lite version.
  • bandwidth management.
  • community specific sharing.
  • Comments
