Hmm, ok, but that is just an implementation detail. I just see a really simlple service here that could become really beautiful if one could manipulate the content, once it is in your browser, so the next time it is passed along, it will have evolved. Into what? I don't know. But what if I seeded the system with an image, a simple drawing or a shape, vector or whatever, and then just sat back, observed how other people took it further. Like graffiti. Forking of content could be insteresting. Or a github, but a peer-to-peer version?

This is a really cool idea.

Implement it as a merkle tree so that you can reference parents and know it will only evolve forward.
