I'm curious to see whether technologies like BitTorrent Sync (and similar products like Space Monkey) gain traction. One cannot deny the importance of backups, especially as we begin storing decades of our lives (photos, videos, etc) online. On the one hand BitTorrent Sync offers a beautiful vision of purely decentralized backups. On the other hand, it requires a critical mass of users to survive (and the number of users must grow as the amount of data in the system grows).
