I like the idea, but I don't see any reason why I should have to register before playing around with the app a bit. Let the user submit ideas and only require registration when they want to create their own private "bin".
- alex_g 14y agoThe point of the app is to list your ideas. The user must register in order for the app to know which ideas belong to them.
- dlf 14y agoAnd that's fine, assuming the user wants the app to know which ideas belong to them. From a UX standpoint, it's so much better to let the user kick the tires before requiring them to register.
- alex_g 14y agoWhere would the idea be assigned if it doesn't know who the user is?

- heelhook 14y agoStripe does a great job at this. You should look at how they do this, its a very well executed implementation.
- alex_g 14y agoIf I want to use Stripe, I have to sign up.
- dlf 14y agoThe idea is to fake the UX without storing anything permanently. Generate a temporary ID to store data to while the user is playing with the site. If they've added ideas they want to save permanently, overwrite the temporary ID with the new user ID. Storing the data only matters if they sign up. I'm a programming noob myself, but I think this should work. If I'm dead wrong, it should only take a couple minutes for me to be corrected ;-) A little inspiration: splendidbacon.com/ Congrats on building something cool, btw!
