So this whole terrorist futures market got me thinking about the power of distributed information.
I was thinking, it'd be cool if someone made a distributed app, wherein users submit questions, the questions get propagated to other users who may or may not be experts on the subject, the other users answer the question, the system correlates the answers to find the ones with the most in common and then returns the answer to the original user.
Just idle thoughts, don't think it's fit for LazyWeb.
