The dream of sharing and streaming the music (and files) on your PDA/Phone to other PDA/phones, while tuning into your fellow train passengers' playlists is finially here.
The app described here wraps up a little web server with file sharing/streaming code, and auto-detects others running the same. So if you're on a bus, walking or whatever, you can pick up tunes from other passing people, and they can pick them up off you, all very easily (if they stick around long enough).
Now all I'm looking for is a method to borrow CPU cycles from them at the same time. Sure they can listen to my music, if I can use some of their CPU time in return. And if my PDA is sitting doing nothing, why not let them run a few calculations on it?
