    Bonjour is Apple's implementation of what is called "zero-conf networking". From the Apple Bonjour homepage:
    Bonjour lets you create an instant network of computers and smart devices just by getting them connected to each other.

    The computers and devices take over from there, automatically broadcasting and discovering what services each is offering for the use of others. The network could be as simple as two AirPort Extreme-equipped PowerBook users sitting in a hotel meeting room miles from the nearest AirPort Extreme Base Station with some large files they need to share. Before Bonjour, frustration. With Bonjour, your computer will discover others, making file sharing completely simple.

    the best example is if your on a network with two shared itunes playlists, each computer can see and listen to the others music. hello, bonjour, would you like to listen to some Zeppelin?
