I think you forgot the GitHub link :)

Also I love the idea of distributed and fully dynamic network, I think there was some project like that in the past. They built distributed imageboard modeled loosely after 4chan, which was actively used by 1,5 people grand total.

I get the fact that something like this might be used at first by paranoid people but give it a few more privacy meltdowns :)

Besides that it could save allot of money in data center costs. I see something like this supported by Mozilla when Google stops the spice flow :)

I think everything could be as simple as installing a browser addon (including the node.js server). The dotjs extension for Chrome already starts a ruby server so it shouldn't be too hard to start the node server.
