1. Comment - Google tries to make its spreadsheets more like wikis

   Actually, this is quite useful.
   
   I know in World of Warcraft there's tons of 'theory crafting' that goes on, where there are complex formulas for everything from how much damage you do, to how one piece of armor (or a weapon) is better than another, even though the statistics are different.
   
   In the past, you downloaded someone elses spreadsheet, and if you had improvements, you'd have to update it and upload, and then before long you have 20 different versions.
   
   There are, I imagine, other online discussion topics that would benefit from pivot tables, calculations, etc.
   
   I think it's a pretty good idea, tbh.
