TWOCrowds is a social predicting website which aims to let us all find out if our collective predicting ability can approach something bordering expertise. Create an account here and type in as many predictions as come to your mind and ask your friends to do the same. Once a certain number of predictions are out there, it is hoped that some interesting patterns or relationships might emerge. If you see a prediction that you agree with, you can easily copy it to your list of predictions.

TWOCrowds is also a mashup. Whenever a user clicks on a predictions (her own or someone else's) the text of the prediction is first run by Yahoo's Content Analysis/Term Extraction API to get the relevant terms out of the text as well as by Yahoo's News Search API to get any relevant news articles. The relevant terms returned by the term extraction API are once again routed through Yahoo's Image Search API to get the relevant images associated with the terms. Finally, a quick AJAX update displays these relevant image and news articles next to the prediction.
