Find a Hacker, Find a Co-founder
- entangld 15y agoWhy wouldn't a hacker just sign up and take the best idea they could find? It would be cool to have good ideas sent to my inbox at all times. I don't know why someone would just give their ideas away though.

- webwright 15y agoYeah, that's bad positioning. Presumably they connect you with people who have ideas and who can help build it, sell it, finance it, etc.
- grantlmiller 15y agoI'd focus less on the idea... (not b/c someone is going to steal it, but b/c it doesn't really matter) give some idea of the space but if you really want to connect with a potential co-founder you have to be able to explain your experience, skill set, etc.

- SkyMarshal 15y agoYou mean like this: http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Ajacquesmattheij.com+idea+dump http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Ajacquesmattheij.com+id... :D
- entangld 15y agouh I meant good ideas... <insert rimshot>
- aohtsab 15y agoword of advice: never combine the phrase "rock star" with "hacker".
- dtran 15y agoNot unless you want someone who only shows up 1/3rd of the time and shows up under the influence when they do. Source: http://twitter.com/#!/jonbeilin/status/48467573053997056 http://twitter.com/#!/jonbeilin/status/48467573053997056
- Apocryphon 15y agoMy theory about this is that we truly are living in cyberpunk times. Rockerboys, anyone?
- oziumjinx 15y agoIs it necessary to use the word "rock star" at all?
- iphoneedbot 15y agogreat idea!
- iphoneedbot 15y agowhy did i get a down-vote for saying "Great Idea"
- iphoneedbot 15y agoGreat Idea!
- Laments 15y agoThings this is missing: Privacy policy, ability to search or differentiate, proof of security, testimonials, terms and conditions, proof that there's any actual people in the database. Pluses: excludes job seekers! Interesting sidebar: "We research each seeker request and only send you the best ones." I'm sniffing a discrimination lawsuit in the making.
- JayNeely 15y agoIt's a private service that specifically states it's serving as an editorial filter for ideas -- how is there a discrimination lawsuit in the making?
- gg_ 15y agoThis is a great idea. FYI, the site does not seem to render properly on mobile devices (tested on Android's native browser and Dolphin Browser HD).
- JakeSc 15y agoHere's a better one: http://cofound.org http://cofound.org
- BrainScraps 15y agoI predict: sausage party of non-hackers.
- vamsee 15y agoI don't like the fact that they're demanding my e-mail id even before they demonstrate their usefulness.
