 		    Now what if your usual "social network" is decentralised? The main difference is that there's not a single entity to manage all the connections and all the data, but a lot of them.
-	        All the users are connected to the same network, but each of them can decide which server they want to connect to. As a result, the data and the network administration's tasks are shared between all the servers. Is it possible to do that on the Internet? Yes, this is how the Email works! That's decentralisation.
