.Mac member’s QTVR webpage a hidden gem

A “hidden gem” of a .Mac member’s page is Hans Inge Hagen’s collection of 132 (and counting) QTVR panorama 360-degree movies he’s made in locations such as Norway, Greece, Spain, the Carribean, and Trinidad. The QTVR’s are fast loading QuickTime files. We know we are risking sending enough traffic to trip Apple’s .Mac limits…

(If a .Mac user’s website receives more than 500 hits in a six-hour period, the user is limited to roughly two times their iDisk capacity of data throughput in that six-hour period. .Mac users who have upgraded their iDisk capacity will have additional bandwidth. If an upgraded user’s website receives FEWER than 500 hits in a six-hour period, the user is limited to roughly 14 times their iDisk capacity in that six-hour period. If an upgraded user’s website receives MORE than 500 hits in a six-hour period, the user is limited to 2.5 times their iDisk capacity in that 6 hour period. When these limitations are exceeded, that .Mac user’s websites will be disabled for a period of up to, but not greater than, 12 hours. The limits stated here are subject to change without notice.)

…however, the risk is well worth it. Take a look here.
