The questions and the answers get rated by the community, and the best answers, in a way, 'bubble up' and finally constitute a great resource. There are different sites with different topics. The most impressive I have seen is MathOverflow (http://mathoverflow.net/), where only research questions get asked. If you check out the users, it looks like a who's-who of mathematical research. I was wondering if we help set up an NLP/CL site much like MathOverflow. There is in fact an incipient attempt at this (see http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/2761/natural-language-processing-and-computational-linguistics-nlp-cl). This is, of course, all free. I hope there is enough enthusiasm for this, since I believe it could be a good thing for the discipline.
