Comment on Show HN: Load this image from a peer rather than from a web server (open source)

Comments

Wow, this is great. I feel like stuff like this can change the web. Have you thought about building a CDN with it?

This was launched just yesterday. Written in pure Javascript.

https://peercdn.com/

Co-Author here: A cdn using peer to peer has been on a lot of people's minds for a while. There are certainly going to be lots of competing implementations, but you can already start perusing PeerKit's code on github

It wasn't launched. A video about it was launched. (Sorry, but landing page posts to collect email addresses are a pet peeve. That one was posted at least three times.)
