Lazyweb

The lazyweb is a concept i ran into around 2003, when I still had a livejournal account. I guess it could be called "crowdsourcing ideas", but i'm sure there's other synonyms for it. Feel free to add them. I first encountered it on Brad Fitzpatrick's livejournal page. Brad has a lot of followers who read his journal, all of whom have unique skill sets that may be germane to a specific problem that he's having. He periodically uses his journal to reach out to these followers, and ask them for their opinions, solutions, or suggestions for further reading that may help him with his problem.
