interesting concept, but I'm always worried that submitting ideas to a site like this will result in the good ones being stolen, if not by the website owner then by the users.

> submitting ideas to a site like this will result in the good ones being stolen

I tried to do exactly that. But the only idea that I'd implement was "elevtr io".

I agree, managing a private test is much more controlled and feels safer (i.e. just whipping up a landing page to prove some demand)
it's a valid point. But don't you want to know if it's good enough to be stolen?
not really -- isn't that like wondering if your wallet is fat enough to get noticed and pick pocketed?
