Any Interest in a Beginner Guide for Nootropics?

I am thinking about making a guide to nootropics for absolute beginners. I know that I was pretty overwhelmed when I was first starting out, and it was hard to know what to trust, especially with regards to safety. The FAQ is a great resource, but I think absolute beginner's would really benefit from more concrete advice about how to begin experimenting with nootropics and about structuring an effective stack.
I'm just wondering if anyone else thinks this would be useful. If you guys are interested I could post an outline of what the guide would contain. If anyone wants to help or contribute feel free to PM me or post here.
EDIT
So it seems like there is a huge amount of interest for this guide. I honestly only came up with the idea yesterday, so I haven't started writing yet. My tentative plan is to start posting portions of it here in the coming weeks as I start to write it, and hopefully people who know more than me can help revise and add to it. Everyone responds a bit differently to nootropics, so the last thing I want to do is to write a guide that says "this is what worked for me, so it should work for you." Just to clarify, the guide will be 100% free.

That's great! Hopefully a guide like this would cut down on a lot of the same types of posts from beginners (like me.)

Definitely. Did you read my modafinil post?

Don't be put off by my tone. I was addressing an issue that has largely gone away now.
