Investment in research, anyone?
Lois noted earlier today that BROG's favorite research tool blo.gs is for sale. Pete suggests:
-
BROG should buy it, hack it to do what we need (including starting the random blog feature back up), and make it all available under a CC license.
That's not an entirely crazy idea. It would be one way to ensure that a very useful service continues to be available. And it could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. But who would maintain it? What would be involved?
