That Reinvention Of The Web Thing Opera Was Talking About? It's Called Opera Unite TechCrunch
The details are sketchy at this point, but the promise is big. The claim is tall. Opera Unite claims to have reinvented the web. The claim is that Opera turns your web browser into a server. You don't have to go through a larger company's servers to share your stuff with someone. The sharing can be direct.
But isn't this like replicating sharing? Sharing is already happening. And your friend can only access the file on your computer if your computer is connected to the web. Whereas "foreign" servers are always on.
This kind of sharing has its uses, sure. This is innovation. But how is this revolutionary? I actually like not to have to store stuff on my own computer.
