Firefox 22 enables P2P file-sharing

Mozilla Firefox (for Windows; Mac; Android; and Linux) updated to version 22 in its stable channel today, bringing with it a bevy of tweaks and optimizations, notably in JavaScript management.

The big new feature in Firefox 22 is full support for the WebRTC set of API components, which allows browser-to-browser Web applications like videochat and VoIP. It also allows computer-to-computer file-sharing, which a new free service called Sharefest already utilizes to let users distributes files from one to many.
