Milemma is a free Android (iOS soon) app which basically lets you ask a disparate group of people what your decision should be in any particular situation.

Yes there is a potential for abuse, but we’re pretty sure that the power of the crowd should eventually even out the trolls, and with something like an app there may be more of a way to filter out the dross and highlight your favorite respondees.
