Coral Webcache

On /. I just found a really cool thing, called Coral.
It’s a p2p web-cache, which can be used by appending .nyud.net:8090 to any domain name. (Try http://lillesvin.linux.dk.nuyd.net:8090 for a cached version of this site.)

This great service – provided by New York University – means that even if lillesvin.net itself is down, you can still access the content (or at least most of it) through Coral… How nice is that?

They’ve even made Mozilla plugins, so you won’t have to type .nyud.net:8090 after the URLs you visit. Get them here.
