Here are a few examples of data towers or telecommunications buildings.
375_Pearl_Street is quite an example of fitting a lot of data support systems in one concentrated location since 1975.

Of course in effect, any such building becomes a node within the Internet.

33 Thomas is even more of a modern fortress high rise, albeit from 1974.

The 1927 Verizon_Building is a strong old bulky telecommunications complex.
Although its a tough old building, it has sustained a couple of strong impacts.

In the 1920s & 1930s it was amazing enough just to have a big telephone building in the city.

Several decades later, telecommunications & marketing networks & other systems have become immense.

Bitcoin P2P Digital Currency
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin, http://bitcoin.org/about.html
A lot of powerful people don't like the concept of open digital currency.

Traditional corporate central banks charge too much interest to borrow money.

Physical money & digital currency, needs to be accessible to practically anyone.
Throughout history, physical money has been abused & stolen, the potential also exists in digital currency.

Web Search Engines (WSE)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_search_engine#Market_share
There should be many diverse web search engines. Google by far is the most popular, a smaller WSE still has its benefits.
