Social networking is just one use of that 'no servers' technology. The only slight problem is that we will have to wait for Q4 of 2017 to see full release.
Add Synereo to the list of those who have tried to decentralize hosting in varying degrees:

Diaspora was one of the first and is still actively developed and also is more or less intended to be server-less, but the problem is that users can't stand-up their own client 24x7, so in essense all these end up being hosted any way, which will be the same for Synereo.
Problem with hosted nodes is that the data isn't backed up on a blockchain, so if your choice of hosts fails you, then you are screwed. Whereas with all the data backed up on the blockchain (e.g. Steem), then you have decentralized backup of the data. Thus, I concluded that Synereo's distributed model of content is incorrect.
As usual, Synereo is a lot of buzzword bullshit, but the reality will hit the metal on the bottom line economics and onboarding realities. And I have already analyzed that in my posts archive.
As for Casper's blockchain design (e.g. RChain), go review TPTB_need_war's posts in the Ethereum Paradox thread.
Any way, most of you are just investing for the hype and pump, and then dump. So my comments shouldn't concern you.
Well, well, well, TPTB_need_war and iamnotback have been vindicated!
the develop still going on right? i think i'll buy some cheap amp's now.
Yes, Greg left Synereo, broke his promises to everyone, and is now throwing a little bitch fit, but he can't do anything. Everybody wants the son of a bitch gone. Greg and his code are a joke. Synereo is hiring developers who can actually produce working code and not "vaporware". Development and deployment of the decentralized social network has now been accelerated. Nothing can stop us now.
