Exchange music anywhere, automatically and wirelessly
Reading FayerWayer I found the project Push! Music, developed at the Victoria Institute of Gothenburg, Sweden. The idea is to share with people in the vicinity at any given time, music files have to relocate in the portable player, such as a Palm. When it detects a device close with this system installed, we'll see a list of music and information that contains the kind to which it belongs. So we can download your appliance to our files that we intresen, and vice versa. Even can be configured to automatically download certain kind of music we choose.
The exchange of files will be automatically
A level network, using WiFi connectivity for detecting equipment nearby, and file transfer. The transfers are managed by a kind of P2P software. As was reading, thinking about the security problems that can lead this automatically copy your files to our Palm. Enrique Dans also believes that point, but I think you can get to a safe deployment.
In my opinion, this project is of enormous significance, rather than the sharing of music itself, by opening our eyes about what lies ahead. Every day more people have devices with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity. And it is feasible for anyone to program applications for these devices, either in Symbian, Palm OS or Windows Mobile. The possibilities are endless, and in the coming years will be hundreds of application "social partners" who will carry the device like a Palm always on top, as necessary as it is now carrying a mobile phone. Time to time.
