I would be willing to send Dave and Glenn et al. some money or buy them lunch - DQSD is elegant and useful.
As for the idea of ePliot's cost-per-click search engine listings, there is no free lunch. ePilot's search results will take users where they don't want to go on their own. (Otherwise, why would someone pay ePilot to direct traffic towards them?) I must say, I am weary from web advertising. I check the news and I have to clip coupons and visit a casino. I check a blog and I have to buy a new car, check out this other cool site and "optimize my computer". I check my stocks and I have to view a mostly naked woman implying that I need to lose weight. and on and on.
I say "Go ahead, ePilot, make all the new searches you want and load them up to SourceForge. I'll make sure not to load them."
I do like Peter Heath's idea. It's kinda like the guys in SF that bought 24 pay telephone lines from PacBell and had computers dialing 1-800 numbers all day on those "pay phones". The phone company has to share the fees it gets from 1-800 numbers with pay phone operators and the guys collected a few $500K checks from PacBell before PacBell got suspicious. The guys went to jail.
