Fwd: efficiently finding lots of sites

[Jess Mitchell]

I remember in Paris, the MyCamTools folks looking at a tool that would  
let them accomplish what Nathan had in his designs:  basically, as the  
user types, the list of sites narrows to only those that match the  
text typed.  I also remember that Erin had a bit of this in the early  
designs for Pager.

Is there an opportunity here?
