I believe there is. Let’s examine what we have so far. When you search for 'apple' in the library, where do you go? In truth, without indexing or the help of the librarian, you go roving through the library and gather all material related to or with the words ‘apple’ and ‘display’ your results. Google uses algorithms to do just that - and according to the materials’ the relevance and/or ‘hits’, it will be listed as such. And, when advertisers pay$ for their ads to be listed first - these listings will show up in the uppermost sections of the first page - if someone paid me at the library to look for certain material and display them first, I would too. Alas, this is the nature of things and we as end-users often have to muddle through the endless list of ‘stuff’ to find what were searching for. Yes, yes, we could narrow our search and type 'apple, fruit' and get more or less what we wanted but there is still ad ‘stuff’ that we had to dredge through. My point is that it would be nice to have and indexing of stuff or a ‘librarian’ to go to to be able to help us narrow our search parameters. Suppose the network infrastructure ‘knew’ exactly where ‘stuff’ is - it’s more akin to you finding stuff in your room or house - if things are cluttered, you will be using algorithms to search through all that stuff; but if things were organized (since you organized it and put it there, and putting the algorithms back in your pocket), you wouldn’t have trouble finding it. Technically, this would mean that the information would be stored locally by each of the end-users on the network, and because it’s stored by end-users, the network 'publishes it' and knows where to 'look'. Just my thoughts...
