The Distributed Proofreading project aims to speed up the proofreading of Project Gutenberg E-texts by having computer users all over the world proof a page each. Good idea, contributes to the literary legacy of the world.

A reader on macslash.org suggested that the next sensible evolution of this idea would be for “Enterprise” writers to post parts of unfilmed scripts, and then we could all point out the glaring holes and inconsistencies.

Actually… I sorta like that last idea.
