Hi Jo,

Interesting suggestion and concept.

I tend to agree with the premise that collaborative thinking can yield a result that is bigger than the sum of its parts. The fly in the ointment, from my perspective, is human nature.

Even though there are plenty of people who probably would contribute freely without expectation of gain, I think most people would tend to hold onto their good ideas.

However, nothing would please me more than to be proven wrong in this opinion.

I look forward to hearing other peoples thoughts. Good topic! Thanks for speaking up!
