A number of years ago, as part of an NSF grant for improving not just Sage but also open educational resources in general, a website called "interact.sagemath.org" was founded. (You won't find it now, but the Wayback Machine can give you some ideas of what it was like.) The idea was to have something very similar to the Demonstrations project or the Maple Möbius thing (if I recall that name correctly) or Geogebra's very good resources.

This site was used reasonably heavily for a couple years, but curation was a real problem (not enough people voting), and eventually spam was too, so it was first replaced with a placeholder page and then just completely taken down. That particular model did not work well, at least not with the size of curator base we had.

However, one would certainly hope that others have ideas for how to get back to something like this! I encourage everyone to brainstorm.
