Internet is mainly used for searching and getting results, the popularity of internet is primarily because one can find anything and everything on the net. The irony here is that the frequency by which people search is way too less than the frequency of them who post content. Only 1-5 people in 100 would be actively contributing to the internet, while the rest will be just using it as a search engine (knowledge repository). My Idea is to get more closer to the above 95 people and get them contribute content to internet while saving time to connect and then post. I will give you an example of why 95 people above with probably better experiences to share cannot/don’t really contribute,
My idea is using a mobile gateway to contribute to internet from people living in urban cities to remote villages. “NEMO”- I am using this name for the service I just mentioned. Following is how just Mobile SMS can be used to contribute to the internet whenever and wherever you can as long as your mobile connection is available. Steps that can be followed: SMS - > REGISTER <Your Name>Reply -> Your Identity is <unique identynumber from NEMO service> So next time when you have good experiences,POST <unique identynumber> [My EXPERIENCES] Your mobile number allows you to create an individual profile in the service. So next time you just finish your lunch in an restaurant and you find the best in the city, country etc share the same to world by just using your mobile.
POST <unique identitynumber> GOOD Biryani a bit spicy at <City> <Area Name> < Hotel Name> You have come across a sale providing with dead cheap shoes, use mobile to post POST <unique identitynumber> SALE of SHOES TODAY AT <City> <Area Name> < Shop Name> All the SMS text will be directed to an online service and form a post on a website. This content service will be registered with various search engines to deliver the content when other people search.

The infrastructure is kinda there already, with web2.0 "instant blogging" sites such as Twitter and Jaiku. The whole web2.0 thing in fact makes it easier for the general public to contribute to the web-o-sphere, with little technical investment on their part.
