Having a decentralized forum/chat/data system would be really awesome, even if that might be against google's interests. I really want the future to have more p2p systems.
There was edonkey, then bittorent, then the cloud, then git, then bittorrent sync...
I don't understand why systems like freenet and bitmessage have not taken off. The internet was built for p2p, but it's still mostly used as a broadcast system where everything is centralized.
Why isn't google trying to fund those projects ? Because they re so much invested in the web of HTML content they can't look eitherway.
