P2P is the Future

P2P technology is everywhere. From data to video - almost any data medium can be delivered via P2P. With 10 gigabit ethernet becoming commonplace in ISPs, there’s no stopping P2P from becoming the next big thing on the Internet.

What I forsee in the near future:
* ISPs no longer maintain large server farms for caches and e-mails
* Our computers automatically participates in a large P2P network sharing compute, memory and storage for a single application (e.g. e-mail)
* Our home appliances (game consoles, TV) runs P2P
* IPv6 will start to prevail with the need for public IP addresses
