[Firestorm] Firestorm Digest, Vol 1, Issue 3

[Benjamin Rose]

We looked at uTorrent mostly when we were designing the specs.  
Although it won't look exactly like it. We hope to make it look like  
the downloads window with the ability to expand the view of each  
torrent to get more details.

At least thats the plan, we'll see how that develops as we get into  
the coding more.
