Good ideas are much more important than just knowledge. I always think knowledge is simply a tool for people to realize ideas. There were many examples to prove it in history.
We are already trying to share valuable knowledge nowadays, which surely would make a big difference for us, but what do we do with those volatile, invaluable ideas?
We'd better to share any ideas we think useful by posting it right after it flashes in your mind, discuss it with others, and even find a way to realize it. Isn't it great? I bet it is far more than great!

What does this mean?[edit]
Never miss it![edit]
You can take online note of your idea flashed within your mind 1 second ago.
It may be the one capable of changing your life, changing our lives and even changing the history. We could never afford to just miss it!!
How good is it?[edit]
Let others to evaluate your ideas:new, old, useful, brilliant or just totally a junk?
Allow rating of ideas, after reading an idea, rate it on a scale of 1 to 10. On each idea, you can see a global average rating, plus a rating predicting how you will rate it based upon how people that have rated ideas similarly to you have rated this one you haven't viewed yet. This could also be used on normal Wikipedia to deal with vandalism. Show me the last revision of an article which exceeds a threshold. Editors would implicitly rate the content by editing a section and keeping prior edits. WilliamKF 03:39, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
Let's roll[edit]
Most often, if not all, you are not alone with such a great idea. There must be a group of people having exactly the same ideas with you. Can't wait to realize your idea? Now you can call on your comrades and make a decent plan to do it.
Examples[edit]
- My ideas
- This one :-)
- NetFlix
A good example showing the power of a good idea. Just look at the way it works, it is simple, efficient, but really useful. Knowledge and techniques serve it as tools no matter it is old and cutting-edge.
Implementation issues[edit]
free ideas only[edit]
People may want to make a fortune by good and register a patent for it. Well, it happened to the software before, and the knowledge now. However, we are talking about free ideas just like free software and free knowledge this time. Publish it when you are sure you do not care the money but the welfare it could introduce to society.
Don't put your idea online otherwise.
GPLed ideas[edit]
We need a revised GPL for free ideas. Nobody is willing to see some shameless guys or companies steal your idea, get a patent on it.
The 'idea' will lose any copyright it has (which it cannot) if publicly announced in the internet. So once its up there, you can't get a patent on it. --210.49.122.37 14:55, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
I thing the better way to avoid idea getting patented is to use it before anyone and with as many people as possible. Get some way to be reconized as the holder of the idea. Will it fair for any thirth party to patent it and be reconized as the holder of the idea after that?
If not that enough may be getting a foundation to paid for the pattent but a patent without payment obligation, a Royalty-Free license.
Category is necessary[edit]
Ideas are hard to be represented by just one key word. So, a good, convinent category is necessary for people to find the right one. It may be usually for us to put one idea under sever categories.
- Would be better if an idea could be categorized within a maximum of 4 or 5 names, which themselves could range from the most abstract categories (ex. system´s theory) to a very specialized one (ex. design of mechanical parts for the 3rd world). In fact, this very categorization should be a good idea to make easy the proposal of new ones... anyone into thesaurus? --Harshmellow 12:43, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
