    Imagine http://www.urbanlegends.com/ and sites like
    it.

    A common problem with the Web seems to be that, while
    there are many sites that are useful in this manner,
    one has to conceive of the idea that X would be useful
    before one can think to search to see if anyone is
    already doing X. Has anyone managed to find a
    workaround for this?
