This is an interesting idea. Concept seems similar in some ways to Reddit/Hacker News. Would Vectr have a way to leverage existing communities of experts (to answer user questions) or would it aim to create new ones?

Thanks for your perspective on this. |"Why would people wanting that bother learning how to use a drone?" Good point. I suppose they might still gain some value from having the aerial view as opposed to setting up multiple shots

Yes, agreed. I found more images that capture the changing climate in action: http://climate.nasa.gov/state_of_flux#Qori-Kalis-930px-80-v2...
