Have you seen Scriptovia.com?  (It just launched this summer.)

Although the concept may be good (sharing ideas, sharing essays,
projects, and research, allowing input from friends and strangers,
taking advantage of a unique 2.0 world), I can see students using the
site as a "free essay" program (although locating the source might be
easier for teachers, if the program does not require a fee to access
all of the contents....?)

However, if you know more about this program and can provide some
insight into ways to effectively utilize it with students (rather than
blocking it at school), I'd be interested.  I can see this as one more
program / site that becomes a serious problem in schools, rather than
an "opportunity for learning."
