Has anybody done that?


I haven't, but I'd like to have an environment where something like this could be tried. Right now, you have to set up a web site, then try and get enough people to use it, while overcoming the "not enough people using it" problem.

Instead of that current path, how about an environment where there is a steady base of users (like geowankers) and a mechanism for trying out those ideas? That's the point I'm driving towards. How do we lower the cost of ideas?
