My 2 cents: I've thought about doing this exact thing before...then I realized it's like giving other people free ideas. Isn't this just the perfect place for others to steal your stuff? What're you gonna do if that happens? I would never post a good idea publicly, just asking for competition you probably can't afford to have.

This point has been discussed into the ground before, but in general, ideas mean nothing. I've had many million dollar ideas: I know because I've seen them in the marketplace. No execution, no value. Also, most people aren't the precious little butterfly they think they are: someone has had their idea before.
