Great idea; I keep trying to leave a lengthy comment and I get an error. I get a 500 Error.

This could work for free or 0 price ideas, but for paid services or products you have to ask someone to give you money to find out if they really like your idea.

interesting concept, but I'm always worried that submitting ideas to a site like this will result in the good ones being stolen, if not by the website owner then by the users.

it's a valid point. But don't you want to know if it's good enough to be stolen?

I agree, managing a private test is much more controlled and feels safer (i.e. just whipping up a landing page to prove some demand)

Interesting site. I think it could be more helpful if it also had a "wouldn't use" button that also asks for specific feedback. Sometimes its good to hear peoples concerns when you are still in the idea phase.

thanks for the feedback man. I'm still mulling that feature over.
