Here's one. Can you get the software to recognise circuit topologies as they are being drawn, and suggest better topologies or components, based on what other circuits have been entered?

It strikes me that the difference between Upverter and any other EDA software is the collaborative/community aspect. Consequently Upverter's competitive advantage will arise from features that exploit the community aspect.

Thats a really cool idea. Similarily, we have been toying with the idea of auto-complete. Ie: You add a couple parts that we've seen connected before, you start to connect them in the same way, we recommend a way to hook them all up.

Also were working on the really simple things like just suggesting parts or implementations based other users designs.

Thanks for the ideas, I'd love to chat sometime!
