| I get it. Pretty good idea. One can either do two things in the tech world: Create new ideas (be a pioneer, and get arrows on your back as a result). Or Improve on existing ideas that already have a defined market. Just like pinboard improved on delicious, this could end up improving on the Q&A formula. Their current approach is innovative in terms of presentation. It looks clean, simple, maybe even Apple-like in terms of grid-like alignment. They need to differentiate the comment/solution issue. It is a good feature. The question allows for more data to be provided by the OP, but it is rather bland looking and gets lost in the gray background. Make the question textbox a light yellow to better contrast it. I see this growing as a mix of different Q&A models. Time will tell. Good luck to the Jig team. |
But: think of this as "create new ideas" but clothed in current UX. There's a lot more to this idea, but we needed to ship something so that we could start iterating with interaction from the public.
Re: comment/solution: I agree.
