For these sites, when I refer to ideas I mean investment ideas. These are straight up write ups on why you should invest in Company X or Y. VIC recently added a discussion forum which leads to a bit of discussion on things that are maybe more conceptual, where you can ask questions and get advice. SumZero has a private messaging system and I think it leads to a lot of contact between members privately, which enables people to find peers to seek advice from as well. Each member has a profile, so the profiles will tell you how long people have been in the business, who they previously worked for, what their areas of expertise are - that sort of thing.
