Someday, if they ever open up their Solr search as an API (it's been on their development roadmap for ages), I have a dream to mine the database and create a "fic recommendation" system. Like, if you like fic A from fandom B, you might also like fic C from fandom D. |

And you could monetize an app/site like this, like $5/month, with some of the funds earmarked as going as donations to AO3. So everybody wins: people find the stories they didn't even know they wanted, system gets more use, system also gets donations. |

I just usually use ArchiveBot to get stuff up, which of course automatically puts stuff into the ArchiveTeam bucket. |
