Full PostI started a new project I’d like to present. As a programmer I spend a non-trivial amount of time searching StackOverflow for information and answers to coding questions, as I’m sure most readers of this blog do as well. It’s an interesting site, merging the Q&A model with that of a wiki/crowdsourcing community, causing it to attract a lot of expertise and become extremely popular in the software community. They explain it better than I do. For about a year now I’ve been thinking that this sort of system could be very powerful as a source of information in other fields, specifically my native field of computational image analysis. Such a resource would have been invaluable during my graduate school tenure (community mailing lists and Google can only go so far) for image analysis information, and it also would allow more interaction between experts and others in the community so
