Hmm, you attracted some attention with that, didn't you?

Anyway, I feel somewhat the same way, or would like to make the registration 
and so forth as painless as possible.  Or, more to the point (for me, at 
least), is that I'd like to have a very fast way to add notes to a wiki (in 
an instant).  

And I'm working on (or trying to work on) something to do that.  I'm a little 
hesitant to say more, because, if the gods are willing, I'd like to try to 
make some money (i.e., as in make a living, not a fortune (well, don't get me 
wrong, I'd accept a fortune)) with the concept/tool.

I'm investigating alternative approaches (and trying to learn an appropriate 
programming language (Pascal doesn't seem to cut it anymore)). 

So why bring it up?  I'm looking for help--if anyone with a programming 
background wants to get involved, give a hollar.  

I haven't decided how to license it yet, at least partially because if I get 
some help, we'd (hopefully) come to a consensus decision on how to license 
it.

Much as I hate C and C++, the most likely scenarios I've considered so far 
would probably involve programming in C++, and maybe C as well.  (Maybe we 
can limit how much is done in C++ or C and do the majority in something like 
Ruby.)
