Panmind: open source collaborative knowledge

Mind2Mind s.r.l. an Italian based company, in partnership with Imran Tayebaly (Columbia MBA '76), recently launched Panmind.org.
Panmind, as the name suggests, is a network to facilitate shared construction and connection of knowledge.
How does it work?
First of all Panmind gives its users the chance to share their knowledge: users can upload their documents, tag them, comment them and "collect" documents posted by others.
Second, users can create "projects" with different levels of privacy and security: "virtual" projects can be created collecting knowledge from people spread around the world.
Marketing opportunities? For sure on Panmind there are opportunities to market yourself: if you have a deep knowledge on a subject, you can probably get in touch with people who are working in that field and, why not, get an interview!
