Virgil made the list with Wikiscanning. Congratulations, Virgil!
(Interestingly, one of the other ideas was also one Virgil came up with a few years ago, but didn't pursue perhaps due to discouragement from several friends.)
Actually, Virgil's idea was to create www.suicidenotes.cx so people wouldn't find your note before you killed yourself. Revenue models included creating, and I shit you not, a coffee table book of suicide notes.
It was one of the most surreal conversations I have ever had in my life: Strick and I sitting in the student center at Georgia Tech trying to explain to Virgil that this was a bad idea.
This was back in Summer 2003 or so. Got to give my partner-in-crime credit, he's a visionary!
Are you kidding? That is a GREAT idea! I have several coffee table books that are coroner's pictures or reporter's pictures of mob hits. There is something very valuable in seeing what death really looks like before you.. y'know... have to see it first hand.
