Breakthrough In Quantum Computing

Software allows combining of multiple internet connections

How would you feel if you could harness the power or bandwidth of more than one internet connection for super fast downloads? A small startup, Connectify, does just that with their software, Dispatch. With Dispatch you'll be able to connect multiple network sources into one beefy pipe for ultra fast download rates. Good news for BitTorrenters... ;)

The team also started a Kickstarter campaign for financial backing. You can help them and get early access to the software.
