Direct democracy is, of course, in use at small scales (club meetings, Robert's rules of order) and seems to work fine. I would really like to see what it looks like on a larger scale. Some with more than a handful of people with a stake in the outcome and more issues that are more complicated. A large city would not make a good test bed but a small town might be ok for this sort of thing. The should be a reasonable human oversight and a graceful failure mode though.
