Well I’ve certainly played the field when it comes to BitTorent clients, I’ve used almost all there is (except the shitty knock off brands that are based off other programs). Whether it be Utorrent, BitTorent, BitLord, BitComet, and the list goes on.

But my current favorite has to be Vuze. I know its a bit of a resource hog using up almost 100Mb of ram and 71 threads (Yes 71 >.>) and it’s also a bit advanced for some. But it does it well and what I personally love is that it lets you set the upload limit on specific peers, just incase you get some leecher downloading 3.2mb/s from you.

Another great thing is the fact that his a huge amount of plugins (and its growing!) with some really cool ones out there. One of my favorites has to be 3D view which lets you see who’s downloading/uploading to/from you. It’s great for those out there who want to see everything :P.

This is probably the most awesome un-known app out there. What it does is simple enough, Get a 3d snapshot of a Direct X application’s scene. Including textures, shaders, and models. That helps a ton when you are looking for textures or when you would just like to learn from the pros, As I do. Its suprising sometimes to see how unoptimized some game scenes are. But to show you a example of the work this thing can do. Here is the texture of the maw’s handler in the game The Maw:
