Often a lot of the chat is just people who read the headline but this discussion seems to be just people who read the word 'freenet' and stopped right there.

The architecture is really interesting and pretty simple for a distributed system. It's nicely presented in the video too.

The examples offered in the docs are very specific to builders of a globally distributed system but some examples of how you might go about building some useful day to day applications would be handy.

Thank you.

I agree about needing more practical examples.

We are working on this, we do have a simple email app [1] and recently completed a more "hello world" type example freenet-ping [2].

Right now our focus is on getting the network up and running (hopefully we're days away - just tracking down some final bugs), but some good practical example apps is high on our todo list.
