There will be a new force on the internet, Qassia. It's a credit-driven intelligence engine coupled to a cascading tag-based web directory. Users can add websites for free, and without having to add reciprocal backlinks. Users will get unlimited quality backlinks and also add intel (short for "intelligence"). Users are rewarded with:

1. Backlinks. Users get one backlink for every piece of intel they add. Every intel will carry a direct backlink to one of their sites. So the more intel a user adds, the more backlinks he gets.




2. Credit. When a user adds intel, he also gets credit, in the form of Qassia dollars. His net worth in Qassia dollars determines how well his websites rank in Qassia directory.




3. Revenue. When a user's intel is displayed, he gets 100% of the advertising revenue generated by that page. Yes, Qassia gives ALL of the gross ad revenue.

Qassia is fundamentally different from Wiki, Squidoo and Google knol, because Qassia is not about asking people to upload authoritative articles. You can just contribute a hastily scribbled tidbit of information about a person, a company, a place, an event, a thing, or anything you know about.

What Qassia value is intelligence about the people, companies, and places around us. The people and places do not have to be famous, and the intelligence does not have to be earth-shattering.

Qassia isn't a wiki. Your intel will not get edited, it will get rated, but not edited. You can write your intel in any tone or style you like.
