Like Kaliya, I talked to the Wiser Earth folks (via my role at Worldchanging). They weren't engaging users, weren't sure why, but weren't open to advice. I had the sense that they weren't very collaborative - though this is from brief conversations some time ago.

Wiserearth looks like it overlaps with social networking and database methodology we are discussing.

I signed up. They passed 50k members in March 2011 but blog activity is low and there is no update on site development since Jan 2011. Maybe the groups are more active. I haven't looked into that yet.

It seems like we could fold some of what we are talking about here into their database, especially info about Next Net people, organizations, issues, and events. I doubt that their database would handle much more of our needs without extending their data dictionary, table structures, and GUI considerably. It might be interesting to propose something to them if we had a better description/specification of what we wanted.

I only got as far as defining the first three fields in our fantasy database so far. I'm behind on the discussion so I don't know if there were any replies.
