Why do products that don't actually exist hit the front page?
- KiwiCoder 13y agoOn the off-chance this is a serious question; As a developer, I want to know if my ideas are going to fly, so when a post for a non-existent product hits HN front page I know there's at least some interest. As a prospective user I want a chance to influence development. When a post hits front-page I get a chance to check out the idea before it is set in stone. As a HN reader I want to see what others are thinking about and doing. It's inspiring.
