https://d.tube is probably the best open example of ipfs thats fairly easy to use.

Otherwise, its first and foremost for geeks, then other geeks implement apps for the normals using the technology.

We (qri) have built a front-end webapp (free & open source) for publishing, sharing, and versioning datasets on IPFS. When you download qri, you're working on IPFS (distributed web).

Still very geeky, but we're trying to make sure it's very simple to use for data scientists/analysts/researchers alike.

here's more on us: https://qri.io & https://github.com/qri-io

D Tube actually runs on top of Steem Blockchain and uses IPFS as a Filesystem.

This is similar to how Tron will work.

I know that, you don't need steem to view videos on the site, so its a good accessible example of an easy use site that uses ipfs.
