What can you do with it?** -A: Think of Tahoe-LAFS as being like BitTorrent, except you can upload as well as download. Also, Tahoe-LAFS has directories and files so that if you're looking at a directory that is stored in Tahoe-LAFS, you can navigate to a file or sub-directory that is also in Tahoe-LAFS. So in that sense it is a little more like a filesystem than BitTorrent is. Tahoe-LAFS comes with filesystem integration for Unix (FUSE) and for Windows—see [#Q23_FUSE Q23], below. +A: Think of Tahoe-LAFS as being like [BitTorrent](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent), except you can upload as well as download.
