No, you don't need to run it out of your home, but what you need is nodes (picture 
ethernet cards and hubs) and a point-of-access (think T3 to the rest of the world).  
The point-of-access is the weak
point, because you're asking eomebody to fork out free bandwidth.  Although, I guess, 
with some sort of crafty network management, we could route it throught different 
nodes, so you could be going
out over multiple DSL connections or something fun like that.
