I am interested in hearing from other people who are wishing to develop applications for both professional and amateur investors using Radio Userland.
The main opportunities I see at this time are:
1. Developing a company specific Instant Outliner that could be subscribed to. In essence I am looking to create a "living" research report.
2. Allowing companies to implement Radio Userland sites that people could subscribe to follow not only news releases but also product announcements etc.
3. Developing XML-RPC calls that could parse SEC documents and return requested information. Very similar to what 10K Wizard currently offers.
My inspiration came from Yahoo Message Boards. However upon reading the Steven Johnson interview on the O'Reilly Network the basis of this idea relies on his explanation of "Emergence" whish is as follows:
Emergence is what happens when the whole is smarter than the sum of its parts. It's what happens when you have a system of relatively simple-minded component parts -- often there are thousands or millions of them -- and they interact in relatively simple ways. And yet somehow out of all this interaction some higher level structure or intelligence appears, usually without any master planner calling the shots. These kinds of systems tend to evolve from the ground up..
I think there are numerous opportunities with this platform. I am hoping to find people who share this vision.
