so i can send something from me to you without having a WWW server on my end.
clients should not have to be persistent. e.g. i navigate to to the Service Bureau
using a WWW browswer on my laptop computer, send some files to the bureau, and then
turn off my laptop to take a nap, fly in an airplane, talk to people - go off-line.
we aren't creating a WWW file system. we hope to enable full duplex communication.
