Freenet is a localhost http-service. I already used it remotely quite often by
just tunnelling the port via SSH to another computer.

It uses public keys for identifying pseudonyms, and it automatically
loadbalances popular data (which is much faster than seldomly requested data).

Also there already is an example of a Javascript-based App on Freenet with a
freenet extension as data provider (Sone, still experimental but already a
cool twitter/identi.ca replacement).

So it might be possible to create an unhosted freenet extension which allows
using freenet as data server which the unhosted Javascript applications on
websites could use.

Best wishes,
