Gnutella (/nʌˈtɛlə/ with a silent g but often /ɡnʌˈtɛlə/) (possibly by analogy with the GNU Project) is a large peer-to-peer network. It was the first decentralized peer-to-peer network of its kind leading to other later networks adopting the model. It celebrated a decade of existence on March 14 2010 and has a user base in the millions for peer-to-peer file sharing. In June 2005 gnutella’s population was 1.81 million computers increasing to over three million nodes by January 2006.
