   Hey, doksbin looks really cool! I do often find myself wanting to save text and have it be accessible everywhere, but I don't feel like making a new google doc or a new file in dropbox (I use both, but this use-case falls in the middle some

   I don't have a specific idea, but here's a more specific challenge: Figure out a way to save your average marketing or operations manager 30 minutes - 1 hour of work that they have to do on a weekly basis.

   Personally, I wouldn't spend much time trying to figure out what these people are trying to prove. Take what they say at face value. Decide if you think the arguments are comprehensive and logical, or not. The second one makes a value judgm

    Yup. There's no limit to the number of collections you can make. If the service is useful for people, I can create optional user accounts for easier management, but for now, just don't forget your password. Or make the password easy, becaus

    Hmm. What you're saying sounds cool, but I don't think I actually fully understand what you mean. Are you talking about more sharing between collections, and sort of adding other people's links to your own lists? I think if people start to

    Good question. The password is so that you can maintain ownership of your bookmark collection and so other people don't add and delete the links you've stored.

    Yeah, that's a big one for me, too. I think this whole online identity thing is overrated. Thanks.

    Cool idea. Here are a few ideas: 1. I second what eykanal said. That wide button looks kind of weird and I didn't see it right away. 2. I would rewrite the text for the Ask, Reply, and Follow sections from the perspective of a power user. I

    Man, I can just sense the total clarity in what you're saying! Thanks! You're right. I've totally lost sight of the actual people whom I can actually help, and if you can't help people, you can't run a business! I believe that there are peo

    So, the difference that I see between Stack Exchange sites and what I'm talking about is that each Stack Exchange site is based around one content area. Within that topic, you have people of all mastery levels interacting and problem-solvin

    Haha, yes, Hacker News does target those same people. I suppose I was wondering if any other forum or Q&A style sites were targeting the same market segment.

    Hmm, good point. Moderation would be super important, which means that it needs a very actionable definition of what classifies as a "hack" and what does not. It might also need a little of structure in the way the information is presented

    Thank you for replying! I agree that any community of smart people with a common interest will have some hackers, but I would think that the goal of that community is to master the common interest, and not "hacking" itself. For example, I a

    That's a really good point. I suppose my initial idea was to do something that gave people the feeling of belonging to a team, which I implemented through competitions, and then I felt the need to reward winners of the competition somehow.
