I just set up my old com­puter so my OS X equipped friends can share files. Noth­ing copy­righted, obvi­ously. That would be wrong.

It’s still being tested out at the moment, but if anyone I know in an inter­web sense would like an account too, do leave a com­ment or send an email.

It has some nice things just now, like Hydra run­ning on the server for chat­ting pur­poses and I’m going to have fun over the week­end installing mod_dav and enabling send­mail to turn it into a minia­ture .Mac type of a thing.

OS X makes this sort of thing a doddle to set up, but it’s hope­lessly inse­cure, most prob­a­bly very slow, and amost cer­tainly a waste of an hour of my time. Still, it’s there - join us!

Update: Fancy that. It works. I am cur­rently con­vers­ing with Matt and Donna on Hydra. The fact that I am blog­ging the fact con­cur­rently does not make me a bad person.
