Yeah, it's technically peer-to-peer because your land is stored on your own client instead of a central server. But calling it a "Napster-style network" is shamelessly self-promoting, since there's nothing useful for you to share. It's instant messaging with ugly graphics.
Sorry if that was misleading. I called it "napster-style" because of the way the master server manages the directory of nodes... just an architectural thing. If I'd had a dynamic super-node structure I guess I'd have said it was "kazaa-style". Hope I didn't get anyone's hopes up that there would be mp3z on BrendanLand:)
Let me know when the next release comes out, with the power to take over adjacent pieces of "geography" and form a collaborative village or army or something.

Now that's something I'd like to play :)
