Open Common Sense

If you don't think that you know anything, you should head on over to http://commonsense.media.mit.edu where you can input your human knowledge into a computer-readable database which is currently building to an acceptable size before being inegrated into a larger project (this MIT project does involve OpenCyc, before you get too excited, but its taking a different tack towards the propagation of emergence in strong AI's).
If nothing else it keeps a running tally of how many articles of knowledge you've submitted to the database, which makes one feel smarter than a computer.
