Chris Pirillo — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 04:16:31 +0000

http://www.lockergnome.com/windows/2012/01/26/ftp-server-windows-7/ – One of the oldest and most popular methods for sharing files over the Web from one central location is the File Transfer Protocol (FTP).

Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to have a server operating system to run an FTP server from your own system. Windows 7, currently the most widely installed operating system for consumers, is actually capable of hosting an FTP server.

While music critics might hate the concept, here’s why we prefer more informative tweets to 1,400 word rants that tell us nothing about what to expect from a band’s new album.
