things that make you hmmm.

Location-Based Internet Communities:

“The idea that I’ve been rolling around in my head is what happens when you combine the idea of an Internet community such as Kuro5hin and allowing community members the ability contribute to a shared map? This idea would probably be realized in the form of a website that is user-driven (that is, users are distinguishable by identifiers and users gain reputations based upon the type and quality of content submitted) and user-supplied content consists of locations and interesting things or events that are associated with the locations. Users would be allowed to create private maps that consists of the base map and any content that the user would overlay on the base map, and users would be allowed to access content publicly provided by other users.”
