What is Mojo Nation?
“Mojo Nation is a data service distributed over the Internet where users can store and search for any data that others have supplied. It utilizes the growing global market for unused disk space, bandwidth, and CPU cycles. Resources are bought and sold in this market using “Mojo,” a currency that pays owners of these idle resources and efficiently puts them to use for everyone.” That’s a wide ranging statement, so it may be useful to break it up. “Mojo Nation is a data service distributed over the Internet where users can store and search for any data that others have supplied.” Mojo Nation is a service with a lot in common with freenet. Rather than serving a piece of data(1) from a single point, it uses specially designed algorithms to distribute that data across the net in such a way as to make access as efficient as possible. If thousands of people in the UK start requesting a particular piece of data, it makes sense to store that data in the UK, rather than keep it in Outer Mongolia
