What is that hacked by chinese tag in the corner?

Paywall?

In the words of a fictional genius, 'bazinga'

Goodluck

Awesome Idea, i totally agree with - just one question about the form. Why do I have to give my name if its not going to be sent to ofcom?

I have no idea what this is or why i'm supposed to want it Popular web product 2010 (social network) + popular news item 2011 (bitcoin) gives me this maybe?

I think the first thing you should do is give a short, easy to digest message on the home page about what Coin Connect gives to its users

Will it make me rich? How Will it get me laid? How Will it make me powerful? How

What tech have you used to build this?

This is great but ridiculously overpriced that 1 months delivery is how much I would tack onto a clients bill for building a customer form or implementing this service.

This is just bad value for money

Cool idea - can it notify me if i'm going to be late

If it knows which journeys i regularly make. Let me know any hour before i'd usually leave that the District line is once again suspended from Upminster to Parsons Green? That i'd probably pay a small amount to know

What's happening, I'm scared :-(

There's a lot of media deposited into my retinas, it's pretty but i feel overloaded to the point that it took me an inordinate amount of time to spot the buttons and even longer to figure out what they are for. There's nothing to entice me into participating.

I'd like to flick through to new things without having to vote, because I'm lazy like that and most people

Could be good if you got some indie record labels and studios on board and fed them people's submissions directly. Like every day, 10 top new liked videos/music goes to labels.

Your idea sounds like a corporate version of Slideshare

3 second idea off the top of my head

Offer the same thing but dress it up as monitored distribution? - Put yourself into the position of being a publisher?

You could run through the sites you grab the thumbnails from and take an educated guess if they should be shown or not.

Most adult sites have an rta meta tag. You can use that along with Alexa and scraping the keywords + domain name for usual suspect text fragments. Might help block out those horrific images that cant be unseen..

Otherwise, love this service and I'm pretty sure I'll be using it

C'mon dude, it's a bit chicken and egg.

What's the alternative? One singularity sits hidden in the dark to build a standardised format to be distributed and used by all with no debate or experimentation? or a infinite implementations of the same ideas each supported in their own way.

And your title, html5 sucks? its not really a problem of html5, html 4, xhtml, css, javascript, java pretty much anything that isn't controlled by a single entity is going to be hit with this issue.

I think a savvy developer would still want hard cash or something tangible other than just equity which is very volatile, although equity is an awesome bonus (if you get us an MVP /when we launch we will give you X%)

NDAs I think aren't so great either, even if a developer passes up, it makes it hard for them to recommend a someone else

If they don't pass it up, it makes it just that bit more stressful having to work very hard for an uncertain reward

Limited equity Some cash, even if it's just a token gesture (get what you pay for) A lot of gratitude Be more open, if developers can talk about your idea you might get people asking to work with or for you

Unless you've got the financial clout to go after anyone who breaches your NDA I'd guess you could hire a whole team of developers full-time. If not, well someone like Apple or Google will drown you in court if your idea really is that ground breaking. :( sad way

Maybe the idea is too big for the incentives you are offering?

What is the right developer?

A lot of start-ups are still looking for that all singing braniac super rock ninja star developer who can program 10 times as fast as everyone else.

But often they aren't willing to pay 10 times as much, or even a reasonable amount.

Keep in mind if you can't afford to pay a developer to work full time, then you need to pay them enough to make sacrificing a large portion of their social and family life in pursuit of seeing your idea succeed.

Also think about how you are pitching the idea. These guys are investors too, they are investing their time, years of experience, wisdom and hard graft into your idea. They need to believe that this will succeed if they push it hard enough.

Worst cases:

Your idea sucks - don't listen to nay-sayers so keep going even if everyone else says it won't work. Dont stop till you are ready too

Your idea is too big - break it into something smaller and more achievable
