Social news sites like Reddit carry great influence and the capacity to mobilize thousands of people for causes deemed important by the masses. A perfect example of the efficiency and speed of Reddit users became apparent a few days ago when a group of Redditors decided that the community should have a private BitTorrent tracker, exclusive to respected Reddit users. On Christmas day the idea was born and just a few hours later the tracker named ‘ BaconBits ‘ was already up and running, with the first torrents being uploaded by an enthusiastic crowd.
