i dont think so at all, look how much time people invest in facebook, and they dont even get anything tangible or useful out of it.

now think about how much more time people would invest if they got cheap access to, say, a sailboat out of it, or conversely if they got a tidy return on an otherwise dead investment.

true point. the thing is, are the people that own the sailboats going to use it? and all the other people who might have useful stuff? the thing is to reach a critical mass, I haven't done that before, but is possible for sure, just takes some time. best of luck with you project, sign me up for beta invites if you are going to work on it.
