I like the concept. Can you say what you mean by 'decidable'? I had assumed that you meant something that could eventually be empirically determined, but your example makes clear that that is not what you mean.

Thanks!

Yes, I meant something very close to your description. Although, I also think, that this experiment with a question that is very timely (in this case: the fight of mobile phones), failed, because it fails to communicate the real value of this platform. The value of getting opinions or (sometimes) feedback on your own thoughts and decisions!

I guess it just means ones that people can answer for themselves in this context? Almost the opposite of what it usually means.

Yeah they could answer them by themselfs. We are making ChilledLime to help people who can't decide on their own!

(Here is the scenario: You are at a sports store and you see 3 sneakers you really like but not sure which one you want so.

- You pop open your "ChilledLime" app (it sorta looks like instagram)

- You pick number of sides to your discussion (In this case 3)

- You can simply add the sneakers and then post

- You can also select the camera icon

So you take lets say 3 consecutive shots each for the sneakers.

Then you wait for opinions of the ChilledLime community. )
