BitTorrent’s audacious P2P-powered Maelstrom browser enters public beta

In December BitTorrent announced its plan to radically change how we use the Internet with Project Maelstrom, a browser that retrieves Web content from peer-to-peer-distributed torrents instead of traditional servers. Now the company is ready to give us an early look at its work.

On Friday, Project Maelstrom for Windows enters public beta and is available for anyone to download from BitTorrent’s site. BitTorrent says a Mac version is coming soon, but there are no immediate plans for a Linux build.
