And then I was reminded of Uber. Isn't Uber in the same sort of service model that requires a human driver for every request, but is doing super successful? (let's not talk about regulation.)
The more I think about it, the more it appears a good business model. It definitely helps users save time and worry, and as demand is growing, it can simply hire more trained service men, and creates huge job opportunities.
This is a platform that enables/accelerates service to people by people. I'm optimistic of its future.
There's more you can add to this, such as 4sq check-ins, Instapaper/Pocket readings, YouTube watched, etc.
Then I realized that it's just FriendFeed, if you bother to add a social element.
