[Textop] The viral potential of Textop

[Larry Sanger]

All,

A short report: I was looking at the search queries that brought people to
the Textop wiki, and among them were "causes of insanity" (result #5 on
Google), "explanation of religion" (also result #5), and "ought implies can"
(#14)--all names of outline nodes.

It's clear to me that, just as with Wikipedia, the more nodes we have, the
more traffic we get from Google; the more traffic from Google, the more
people we get interested in the project; and thus the cycle gets started.

Think next of the viral potential of debate summaries.  They would be "hot
items" to link to from blogs and centers of controversy, thereby driving up
traffic.

So I think we should get to work on the Debate Guide Project.  Join me on
the wiki; I'll be drafting some policies for it, which need your review.
Then some of us can do some prototypes; and then we can make an
announcement.

This could be big!
