Why not just host your own email, calendar etc? You can even do it in your personal cloud and replicated it SECURELY to machines who won't give out your information at the drop of a hat or are hacked by a high profile attack.
It would seem that many server apps support open standards (SMTP, CalDav, XMPP etc.)
Your address book is the new friendlist instead of facebook's. Why not do the same with your email and calendar, etc. ? And dropbox is cool but you can easily have mercurial + watch files with node.js ... I think there's DVCS-autosync and OwnCloud is coming along
