New form of CAPTCHA

I stumbled upon this tonight.  Seems like it would be a good way of verify humans.  The only problem is having the processing power to generate new ones every time a user views your form.  I’m afraid this will not be practical for many years.  But still, pretty cool

New platform for open data

Factual is a new web application that facilitates the open contributing of data on the internet.  Think of it as wikipedia for databases.  I’m pretty stoked.  I’m not sure if this experiment will turn out to be a winner or not.  But, I sure hope they make it.

The data stored in it is very much open ended.  For example here is a database of one of my favorite things, beer. Go ahead, edit the data. Add whatever details you you want.
