I could talk more about the unprecedented things I think would emerge, that don’t resemble what already exists, but they might not believe me. What I can do is explain how it will compete well, if it must.
I guess what I’m really trying to say is that I want omegle but for idea jamming with intelligent people
Oh, I think my friend Demi Schanzel is working on something a lot like that. A project called “Solstice Cafe”. It’ll match you with random people on a recurring basis (if you seem to like each other) while trying to map out networks of compatibility. At least, that was a concept we discussed last time we got together. An example of the kind of thing they make, so that you can start getting excited.
We resolved that the system should probably name webs randomly. Those in the webs would quickly learn their meanings. As the webs mutate and diverge, the names would mutate and diverge too. The names would be used to tell you some basic things about the people you meet up front, so that you know what they’ll be able to understand.

I think it will be absurdly powerful.
