I like the concept-I think assigning attributes and making people think about rating them will help weed out the idiots you get on places like Yahoo Answers. I do think you need to focus on building a strong, intelligent community for this to work. Also, the layout of the attributes rating box needs to be cleaned up-it's kind of confusing right now.
By the way, I'd be happy to feature Crowdmind on our website, www.usefultools.com, either now or in the future (since you're still working on it).
- richesh 17y agoThanks a lot for your review and support. I will definitely get in touch with you once I've fixed some of the issues pointed out here. Seems like we need to do some UI tweaking to the decisions page. Any suggestions on how we can build the community? Its definitely been a struggling point for us at the moment.
- greengirl512 17y agoWell, step one is just to make people aware that you exist-I think the "get a bigger crowd" option is a great way to do that. Increasing your Twitter following would probably also help, though. Tweetspinner is a good app for this-if you get their premium service, you can follow people automatically when they mention certain keywords, automatically follow all of your competitors followers, then purge the followers that don't follow you back. You can also submit your site to social media sites like Digg and Reddit. Getting other websites to write about you will also help point people in your direction. Once you start attracting people, I think having a credibility rating system will become increasingly important in helping to keep the community healthy, intelligent and civil.
