very interested in using it.

http://sqlfiddle.com/ sort of does this, but not in the way Dataclips does.

Rahil, have you thought about extending this idea to a place where you would post a DB schema and SQL queries and let the community optimize it. Companies will use this to tap into the expertise of many database engineers.

This sounds pretty out of scope for what I'm thinking of.

I'm trying to solve the problem of people sharing data within an organization. I'm not trying to make a social community of database engineers.

Cool idea though! Feel free to contact me if you'd like to chat more.

There's the excellent https://github.com/epantry/django-sql-explorer if you're running a Django app.
