I enjoyed all of your comments.
However, I feel that all are missing the big issue: control of data/

Centralized services (like google), even at internet scale, may be
able to offer better *technical* properties over P2P solutions. But
why should we (and can we) trust a single entity (organization/
company/...) with the world's data?
P2P technologies are thus the only available solution (at least for
all who dont like big brothers)...
That's not clear IMO. For personal data, one server per person may be
a viable alternative to the Googlepocalypse. I don't consider this
P2P, since the servers would have no particular need to talk to each
other. Except SMTP and Jabber S2S and... :-)
