I commented on this in
another thread a few months ago. I think a unified scouting system would be a huge benefit to everyone in todays wireless age. It seems like a fairly easy thing to do as well. I give big props to whoever pulls this off first and gets everyone using it. I would think such a system (if effective) would eventually become something more "FIRST" official. It just makes sense and it's only a matter of time.
Many folks have tried, but the usefulness of the info is whats in question. How do you meet the masses needs? How do you make it user friendly? Then how do convince everyone it's the way to go, instead of the "other ones" that will pop up.
I kinda wish FIRST would sanction something like this. So everyones energy went into 1 system.
