I'm game, too. It would have to be quick to market, for sure. Then again,
there are many sites on the web that already do that kind of thing: collect
writing from various authors and stick them under one roof, with a "stamp of
approval". I don't hear about them publishing books very often (though
webmonkey couled probably put together a rather good one). Maybe there's a
reason? Could there be a collaborative web site in this list's future?

Picture a few editors, a few dozen or more writers and maybe a
collaboratively set agenda, maybe even a wish list: "I need a basic
introduction to Perl", "Can someone help me write a custom Cold Fusion
tag?", "How do you set Cookies using Javascript", etc.
