The Circle ---------- Decentralized file sharing, chat and news application The Circle is a peer-to-peer application that provides file sharing, instant messaging, and news services. It's novel feature is that while it is fully decentralized, the method it uses to search for files and people theoretically scales to millions or billions of users. Advanced features include the ability to download a file from multiple sources simulataneously, the ability to send messages to people who are not currently online, and the ability to generate a customized news service by specifying trusted sources of news.
