Posted Jan 31, 2005, 11:07 PM ET by David Touve
Andrej Preston, from Swarm Systems Inc, took some time out to answer some of our questions about Exeem. Here is the brief interview (our questions are in bold):
1. Why build Exeem?
We made eXeem, because we felt that there was time for a new kind of P2P networks.
2. What were the reasons behind adding comments and ratings to the Exeem network?
They were implented, to try to avoid the fakes and viruses that were flooding other networks. Although they are not 100% correct, they are in most cases.
3. What do you see as important, future features you would like to add after beta?
There are many functions that we are still working on, which are all very important to us.
4. Users are reporting some issues with the types of software bundled with Exeem. They even use the word Spyware. Are you afraid these bundles might affect growth? Any changes planned?
We have heard alot of critics because of the adware inside eXeem. Those thinking that eXeem has spyware inside are wrong. eXeem does not contain any spyware, all the ads inside are adware. Mostly adware inside is going to be opt-out. And currently we are going to be testing http based ads, similar to those that the websites have. We do not yet know, what kind of ads we will include in final. We will see how this test goes.
5. How do you think peer to peer applications will change over the next few years?
I personally think, that they are going to become faster and more reliable. We shall see
Thanks Andrej. Best of luck.
