Notes & Queries
JA: I guess my first criticism would be a worry about the name "crowdsourcing". It clangs me wrong somehow. Jon Awbrey 12:12, 8 October 2008 (PDT)
NR: My thoughts: Do I even have real-world credentials? Now there's a problem. Why not have a message board and a wiki? There are good and bad points to having either one.
NR: On the thought of what domain name to use: I think MimboJimbo.com would be suitable. — Nathan (talk) / 19:15, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
