And the answer was revealed last night.

A few public relations firms guaranteed me access to real, life-like revolutionaries. “We have an unparalleled web presence,” they all said. But Wilford and I didn’t want it to happen that way.

“Revolutionaries are like husbands or wives,” I said to Wilford. “They aren’t nearly as special if you buy them!”

He agreed. “Either this revolution begins organically, with people who want to make their lives and this world better, or it doesn’t begin,” he said.

It is my hope that together, we can help spread the word about this
revolution… the one that begins here!

It turns out to be this:

Avanoo, a site that aims to tap into the “wisdom of communities” to offer answers to your questions
about life, is officially launching today.

There are several question and answer sites already out there, such as AllExperts and new start-up Megabuzz, of Seattle. Each seek to maximize page views, and therefore advertising.

Avanoo appears to want to go deeper. Its idea builds on the “Wisdom of Crowds” theory, laid out in James Surowiecki’s book of the same name. For those who haven’t encountered it, the “Wisdom of Crowds” posits that the collective opinions of the many are more likely to be accurate than those of any expert.

However, Avanoo’s founders, Dan Jacobs and Jeff “Wilford” Vander Clute, say the Wisdom of Crowds, currently embodied on sites like Digg and Reddit, often represents the wisdom of a dominant social group and its sometimes mindless followers. Avanoo is designed to break down big crowds into discrete communities, along demographic lines. By doing so, Avanoo hopes to enable people to find opinions from the perspective they share.

Dan and Jeff, who are based in Venice, CA, have spent the last year stealth mode, developing a site and technology designed to ask any number of questions, capture the answers from any number of perspectives, and deliver results on demand. Today they are launching a wildly ambitious marketing campaign: 100 million opinions in 100 days. While this goal is pure madness, the world could have a pretty interesting resource for fun and research if it went according to plan.

The site’s Beta launch was announced in mid-May. The Choose Your Revolution domain was registered on June 1.

Dan Jacobs first made the news three years with a planned documentary in which he would go on 50 dates, one in each state. Jeffrey Vander Clute has worked at Clickshare, Lycos, eZiba, and Tripod.

I’m guessing it’s because it is linked on the front page of The Huffington Post.

That was mine…it’s has religion/race, social class, location it seems.

orders of magnitude bring the best clues.
you have almost hit the first one.

“In the young and burgeoning genre of alternate reality games, otherwise known as ARGs, the players’ collective intelligence is applied to cracking codes, solving puzzles, and completing complex tasks doled out by almighty ‘puppetmasters.’

“McGonigal wants to harness the power of the communal cerebellum her games create, and put it to work solving real-world problems. Maybe young folks in warring countries could play games together, and would be less inclined to shed each other’s blood. Maybe players could analyze real scientific data in the course of a game, crunching numbers and looking for patterns just as they always do, but with a payoff that goes beyond advancing to the next stage of a game.”
