WANT TO EDIT THIS IDEA?

For our next act, we are thinking about creating a way for you to review investment proposals from interested parties. This is fairly complicated but we think we have a solution.
The purpose of this would be two-fold: (1) help you attract dollars to fund the development of your ideas, (2) create a real-world connection to ideas which are in many cases theoretical.
The other side of this is that it would also provide IDEASTOX members with a way to get involved - potentially as a stakeholder - in ideas on the site that interest them. Howard Dean raised $59 million on the Internet 4 years ago through small dollar donations. We think you should have the same opportunity.
Finally, please keep in mind that while we all think our ideas are great, innovation is very much a Darwinian process. Not every idea on IDEASTOX will happen. It is our hope however that the best, as deemed so by the community, will have a greater chance to do just that.
The IDEASTOX Team is a scrappy, resourceful crew with diverse backgrounds and eclectic tastes. We're based all over: Los Angeles, Tucson, Austin, New York, Washington, Minneapolis, Virgina, Las Vegas, and more... but the one thing we all have in common: lots of ideas. Which is why, we think, so do you. If we're wrong, IDEASTOX won't work and we'll go back to our desks, scratching our heads, trying to figure out what to do with our days. But if it does work, we'll be overjoyed at knowing you can now have a louder voice in determining which ideas happen and our idea helped to get you there.
