This overlay network is different from others, in the sense that it enables participants to share services on a personal basis, unlike other overlay networks that provide a single service for all peers. Since the overlay network is not supposed to have central servers for managing a single service, its bootstrap and the direct communication among pairs of participants is challenging. However, the actual social networks, such as Twitter, Facebook and Google+ already provide an API that enables participants to exchange direct messages, which will be the basis of our bootstrap mechanism. %G English %Z TC 6 %Z TC 11 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01404205/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01404205/file/978-3-662-44885-4_13_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01404205 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01404205 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC11 %~ IFIP-TC6 %~ IFIP-LNCS-8735 %~ IFIP-CMS
