Who needs databases like ProfNet and SourceNet when you've got QCircuit.com, "the inventory of human experience"? The QCircuit press release promised us access to "one of the
only living survivors of a commercial jet crash at sea and a master swordsman from Europe," among others. Seeing as how PR NEWS is always in the market for
sensationalized, regurgitated content, we checked out the site. Just as we suspected, our search of the database (using the search phrase "dogs in space") turned up a fascinating
roster of experts - including a 26-year old actress and mystic from New Jersey (who only charges $250 per hour!) and a n ex-con who offers "recovery, counseling and support" (no
doubt, for dogs traumatized by space travel).
Oh, QCircuit, we have news for you. Someone else already beat you to the punch in creating a hopelessly cluttered and chaotic inventory of human experience. It's called the
Internet. Don't waste your money on letterhead.
