Nice idea. I don't have the time to do this right now as I'm already working on a few side projects but I'll definitely be checking back in a few months. Not too sure $30 is the right price. $20/25 feels better to me (small difference I know but $30 just 'feels' a little high).

I wonder how much that is just http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anchoring . If it was set at $20... would $10/$15 have felt right?

Good point. I also think it's slightly psychological as I'd be more likely to pay if it was $29.

This seems cool, as far as I can tell it's more for one's personal education, rather than producing something for others to use? So I'm curious... is there any kind of "open-source incubator" out there? Like, a site with 500 developers signed up, they all vote on new project ideas, start a new project each month, kind of like a great big collaborative hackathon, in order to put out some really impressive piece of sof…

That's exactly what Assembly does ( https://assemblymade.com/ideas ). We enable everyone to openly collaborate on real products and then share the upside. Every month there is revenue Assembly transparently pays the bills and splits the remaining proceeds with everyone that built the app. disclosure: one of the founders of Assembly

well this just popped across my desk... nice. pretty similar to our Geeklist hackathon/projects/ideas app rolling out of our hackathon app at (http://geekli.st/hackathon) only it is all free. we don't take any cut. we provide all the infrastructure. Apps that get built that gain traction our Geeklist Labs will help get funded - if they want. No contracts, no fees for the app. 100% open source collaboration for ideas and projects. Spurring innovation globally at Geeklist. disclosure: I founded Geeklist. - r - oh and hack4good (http://hack4good.geekli.st)
