    This is awesome. When are you going to start charging for ideas?

    Not sure how practical it is to charge for an idea.

    I think people who do that kind of stuff tend to make 100+ slide PowerPoint decks to sell an otherwise simple concept, that they typically just took from their last project anyway–though it's perhaps a popular occupation for MBAs…

    Maybe something here will get sold for $100K in the form of a PowerPoint! :)

    This “MBA Ideas” concept already exists. Check out http://www.venturerate.com/. Though it's mostly engineers.
