The New Freedom

Jump to Comments

Let’s try something.

Google’s GMail service provides two gigs of space to play with. The GSpace Firefox extension lets you use this space as a type of online storage drive. I’ve created a gmail account so that we can all use it to share files on Google’s bandwidth bill.

To use it:

First, install the GStore into Firefox. If you don’t use Firefox, then seriously, why the hell are you not using Firefox?

Then run extension for the first time. Create a new user account and use the following information:

User: gnewfreedom
Pass: dotnet

Then close that box and click the stylized ‘G’ button on the status bar. This will bring you to a screen reminiscent of most FTP clients. The rest is pretty intuitive.

Share music, movies, books, weird porn, whatever, anything you think other people might like to download. Keep in mind this is an experiment and the account is public, so don’t expect anything you upload to be permanent. If it runs out of space and you don’t have enough room to upload your files, please delete the oldest things first.

I put up an old Antibalas album to get things started in a funky way. Give it a listen! Then put up something else!
