This might help with videoblogging bandwidth concerns. Not P2P, but free caching. FreeCache: "While keeping their big file on their webhost, the RockLobsters change the URL on their webpage to point to: http://freecache.org/http://www.rocklobsters.com/videos/my-new-rock-video.mpg When a user clicks on this, the user downloads the file from a nearby machine on their ISP's network, and
the user is happy because it was fast."
Would this work for videobloggers? Other options are BitTorrent ("You can link to the .torrent file using an ordinary hyperlink") or Overnet ("You can embed links in webpages that will initiate downloads within Overnet.").
