One way of facilitating rare bird alerts would be to get the publishers of 
field guides to put a little section up front mentioning sites like B-Aus as 
outlets for alerts.

But the problem  immediately becomes apparent - very likely many false alarms 
from inexperienced birders. Then the accurate reports get lost in the crowd and 
only a few sources would be trusted. So we'd be pretty much back where we are 
now, but with a lot of extra noise.

Cheers
Pat
