Here is my idea:

Create a way for one person to pose a problem, or a challenge or something that needs people to accomplish it.

Then people with bitcoins can look through these problems and if they agree that they too want to be involved, they can pledge their own bitcoins towards that problem.

Everyone will be able to see how much is pledged toward the various problems and as the pledges reach a certain large amount, then people with solutions will start to pose their solutions to the problem.

The people who pledged toward that problem will be able to vote for the solution with their bitcoins.

If enough people vote with their bitcoins toward a particular solution, the solution gets funded and the problem gets solved. If not, people get their funds back and wait for the next solution to be proposed.

I call it BitPools Wink

I was thinking along these same lines, Elwar! Something involving crowdfunding, where people contribute whatever they can towards whatever they want. If they have money, and no skills, they can throw down money and get something in return. If they don't have money, but have skills, they can contribute anything they can to make it happen. Would require some measurement of accountability like regular meetings over Skype and planned deliverables, etc. But I think something like this could change the way things get done.

It is excellent that you have started something like this. I am very interested in seeing how it evloves!
