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?
