eigentlich war dies ein Post im Opera-Link-Thread, aber diese Revolution ist einfach unglaublich und muss ins Off-Topic - zur Info und Diskussion.
Opera hat heute um 6 mit der nächsten Revolution aufgetrumpft.
Diese nennt sich Opera Unite.
1. Introducing Opera Unite
Opera Unite is a unique technology that turns any computer or device running Opera into a Web server. In other words, your computer (running Opera Unite) is truly part of the fabric of the Web, rather than just interacting with it, and it’s something anyone can use. With Opera Unite, everyday non-technical users can serve and share content and services directly from their own computers in the form of intuitive applications. That sounds kind of cool from a technology point of view, but what can you do with it, and why is it important?
With Opera Unite, we are giving developers a chance to develop applications (known as Opera Unite services) that directly link people’s personal computers together, so that you can connect with one or more of your friends at the same time. It all happens through the browser, so no additional software has to be downloaded, and it will work wherever Opera works (Windows, Mac, Linux, and later mobile phones and other devices). Opera provides the platform and you provide the applications—what you create is limited only by your imagination. We believe Opera Unite will redefine what’s possible with Web applications, and we invite you to join us in moving beyond stale ideas and limitations.
Our vision for Opera Unite
What will Opera Unite services look like? How will they be different from other application platforms out there, and what will users be doing with Opera Unite that they weren’t doing before, using other technologies?
The initial applications offered by Opera Unite are just simple demos (such as a “messenger” application and a media player) that replicate existing services and online functionality, showing them working in the context of Opera Unite. That’s just the tiniest tip of the iceberg—the potential for what can be done is much larger. The key to Opera Unite is that it enables a whole new class of social software on the Web, applications that benefit from two or more people being online at the same time. And, with Opera Unite, these people can all connect directly without needing middlemen who control third-party servers.
What Opera Unite offers is an opportunity and a challenge to developers and entrepeneurs who are creative enough to envision new ways that people can interact online, so that computing becomes truly interpersonal.
At this point, if you’re already convinced about Opera Unite’s potential, feel free to jump to part 3 for some examples of what Opera Unite services might look like in the near future. If you want to learn more about why we created this technology, read the next part.

Das wird wieder ein langer testreicher Tag
Nach den ersten Tests:
Wie geil ist das denn? In 5 Sekunden ist mein PC wirklich ein WebSever
Default Index Page
ein FileServer, ein StreamServer, ein ChatRoom... BOAH!
Nie wieder umständlich Daten tauschen, sich auf einen Chat-Client einigen müssen oder sonstige Seiten suchen müssen, auf denen ein bestimmter Service angeboten wird! Alles läuft von mir aus und ohne Drittanbieter, der womöglich meine IP oder sonstiges missbraucht.
Was haltet ihr davon?

Auf dem Abstellgleis sah man ihn liegen,
Auf dem Abstellgleis zwischen Schwelle und Gestein,
Auf dem Abstellgleis im strömenden Regen,
Auf dem Abstellgleis allein.
Auf dem Abstellgleis zwischen Schwelle und Gestein,
Auf dem Abstellgleis im strömenden Regen,
Auf dem Abstellgleis allein.
