That is one area where the internet could use improvement.
Google can teach you anything... if you know what you're looking for; but there doesn't seem to be a good system for exploration beyond that. If you follow the right discussion/link services and keep a general watchful eye out, the stuff out beyond the edge will eventually flow to you, but there is certainly room for improvement.
I believe it is a solvable problem and the company that gets it right will have amazing growth potential.
