Doing as much as I can while working a full-time job on the side. But I'm leaving that soon to get back to contract work and devoting more time to following through on my ideas. Big things start 2008! :) @Jim

And obviously a LOT of free time. I remember when I had free time... before I was married with child and oh.. started running a community site. Keep up the good work!

Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right." i'm in the same boat as you. often times i spend days/weeks/months thinking about something, only to realize it was of little value...except for what I learned in exploring it...which in turn makes it invaluable. that said, i'm subscribing to ur feed. looking forward to more ideas. i enjoy your style, very clever.

I'm sure it would be possible, and working together people can do s omuch more, (pretty good Idea for a website if you ask me. if anyone wants to make something like that, I will be willing to help) :) It would be easy, just add a forum and make it so the owner of the Idea can display just a summary or something to the public, then people can offer help with the Idea, at which point the owner of the Idea can give the user permission to view the full idea and post comments, which cannot be seen by anyone but the people who have permission to view the full Idea.

I have a ton of ideas too... but you are skilled enough to act on yours. Kudos. Seriously. Like the guy above I have an idea I'm looking to act on soon. Although I'm having troubles locating the talent to make it a reality. Perhaps you could add a form that allows users to shoot you ideas and perhaps some interesting collaborations could evolve. Or better yet, start a service where you will give early stage developmental feedback to non-programmers for a fee. You know, point them in the right directions or tell them holes in there theories. Well, whatever you do... this blog rocks and so do your ideas! You are seriously BADASS. I have a ton of ideas too… but you are skilled enough to act on yours. Kudos. Seriously.
