The Incite Network also performs an important trend spotting function.

The Incite Network is an example of two major technology trends, the power of community and the network effect. As shown in success of a technical community like Slashdot, a group of like-minded, knowledgeable individuals identifying key issues and then providing a number of “opinions” as to the right solution is very powerful. The network effect means the intelligence will become exponentially stronger with the linear growth of the members. The more members, the more opinions, the much more significant “incite” is derived.
