Wikipedia has both enough content and bandwidth demand to justify peer-to-peer distribution (in the style of Bittorrent) for redundancy and to save network costs. Also, possibly to circumvent censorship.
The master site throttles down bandwidth and encourages users to use the yet-to-be-invented P2P app (or course, seeding all content), ideally a webapp that requires no modifications to the browser.
Reddit/Imgur might also.
