General Idea

Would it be possible (heck anything is possible) let's say feasible to have some sort of social network site, and when users upload images, video and sound that it be stored in there own dropbox account rather than on the servers of the application. This way they retain their stuff and can remove it whenever they see fit.

Just an idea really

Any insight would be great

There's http://ifttt.com, but it's not exactly a social networking site…just a really useful tool for doing something similar to what you've described.
