Hi Renato, You might want to check out http://apps.facebook.com/leaflobby/
"Leaf Develops Peer-to-Peer App for Facebook" (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2324639,00.asp) It actully integrates in to the user's Facebook profile. It is marketed a game lobby but really is just a VPN connection.

The SocialVPN builds upon the open-source Brunet P2P library. We have extended the IPOP (IP-over-P2P) virtual network, a structured P2P system which features decentralized UDP hole punching, optimizations tailored to IP tunneling, and support for multicast DNS (Bonjour/Avahi). A key novel aspect of the SocialVPN is its ability to avoid conflicts between the VPN and a host's existing IPv4 network by using private networks and dynamic address translation, a technique described in the COPS workshop this year. Our current implementation runs on Windows or Linux and uses the Facebook API, and bootstraps with an overlay deployed on PlanetLab. We are planning on implementations for other platforms and to support the OpenSocial API. If you are interested in using this software or develop applications around it, you can find documentation and downloads at http://socialvpn.org.
