The idea is that since creating an Orb is so quick, it makes sense to create sites for all kinds of different things. We're trying to lower the threshold.

Instead of storing stuff locally, in Google Docs, in email, etc., Orbs becomes a handy place to store almost any kind of textual information.

Ok, but for example for a trip advisor I would have thought there would be registration of travelers, mailing lists, and so on. Maybe I misunderstood - of course if instead of an algorithm, you have some human updating the data on the site, all that is doable.

Yeah, the sites are all free from text and human driven.
