3 things.
1. I had to look up quackroll, i am ashamed.
2. a question to ponder, a lot of what you guys have said about internet stuff is cool and whatnot, but how can that sort of thing be used to help the people who are really not doing well out there? there are multiple directions you can take that in, but which way do you think dan would take it, assuming this sort of thing is even relevant.
3. is dan's secret project THE PROJECT of all projects or is it just another tribe project that dan happens to be doing and that happens to take a long time and that happens to have to be secret because....*blah blah blah*

alright, so when said project is announced, does that mean that all external projects (that is to say, projects that involve others besides us.) will be as a part of the big project? will there be other endeavors that the pogotribe involves itself with or will the sole focus of the tribe be on this project?

Nothing is stopping the tribe from doing projects, not even Dan's project.

The mystery of Dan's project is part of the reason why it's so awesome in my opinion. I'm trying to piece the facts together, but I'm still having difficulties.
I hope it lives up to the hype when revealed. Either way.. I'm happy that I'm part of this wonderful community.

I've given up on speculating.. I know that it'll be awesome. It's obviously something that the average person wouldn't think of. Therefore I, being average, won't be able to think of such a prject. Plus specualting just makes me sad that I have to wait so long... :\

If it turns out that his project involves community then we would do a great job... Oh, and Sammi - has anyone ever said you look kinda like nanalew?

This could be me being slightly insane. But I am going to say it anyway, Dan's main points have been about education, freedom of knowledge, the internet and community. To me this could possibly indicate some form of free online education provided by us possibly voluntarily as the community. We would teach others and they would teach us. Collectively the entire population of the world, knows everything that the entire population of the world knows. If that made any sense. If everyone in the world taught everyone in the world about something that only they knew or something along those lines, everyone on this planet would have the opportunity to know absolutely everything.

I'm pretty sure that's the goal of the Wikimedia Foundation. That's why Dan donated a bunch of his prize money from WWTBAM to Wikimedia.

Ok here is my inference based on what I've heard. Dan is possibly trying to create a great revolution on the internet based around information distribution and community. The fact that Youtube is possibly involved as well as Wikipedia says that it is based around information distribution. Wikipedia = articles and Youtube = videos. Dan maybe thinks that he can combine these three elements - Articles, Videos, and Community to finally step the world into the "Information Age" like he referenced to in his open letter to educators. I think that this would be a separate website, or a massive upgrade to the Pogotribe. Imagine, an entire community based around the distribution of knowledge. An easier way to learn and a fitting community to help each other learn. Maybe that's what Dan is trying to do.
Edit: Seems like some other people have similar speculations. High five guys!

Second theory after my original one.
Dan is secretly gay and is going to come out of the closet in May once he knows he has a group of people that will support him. Danielle is just a cover so no one questions his sexual orientation.
DON'T BE AFRAID TO LET YOUR COLORS SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE.
What do I win?
