My thoughts: - work on making your copy less verbose - let me get to the good stuff right away - what will make people want to actually take action?

  I agree that the copy is too verbose. The funny thing is, it didn't even occur to me until someone pointed it out. As for action, I personally get really energized just having conversations about an idea, but that isn't enough alone. There is a function within each Spark that lets people offer help if they like the concept and want to be a part of it. Outside of that, I still want to do more to encourage action. We've talked about running a startup version of a hackathon. An event where people would share their ideas over a couple days, a committee would pick the best group, and people could join up to do them. Instead of a normal hackathon though, you'd build a landing page and spend a week marketing to sell your idea and get people to sign up or even commit to buying your product. The winner of the event would be the one who gained the most traction, not the one with the coolest hack.
