Everyone can already have popular data now. Getting the popular files is not the problem.

2. Use the bit torrent strategy! Let me make sure no one downloads from me at a much higher rate then they are uploading. Some people might be more generous then others...
We are fully aware of the bittorrent strategy but we can't make it work because Gnutella is already using HTTP. Besides, the bittorrent strategy isn't really working. Between the amount of data you download and the amount of data you upload can easily be a factor of ten. The ed2k strategy of forcing a ratio of 1:4 in the client software has been much more successful.

3. Allow people to tag files with names, so that searching is better. The most frequently entered names can be used for the search. Now people can trust the search and file names a little better. (Meta data?)
That's already possible.
