Ideas

I decided to put the idea to the test.... I sponsored a 5 cambro fun photo contest out of my own pocket.

Check it out and be sure to submit a pic :)

i'll try ...sounds lke a nice deviation really frm tag of (idea)wars!

Thanks Saigon. If the theme ends up being too hard, let me know. I might change it to something easier if enough people have trouble.

dunno
To much contests take away the focus on what CH is all about.

And what would CH be really about? Voting and commenting on ideas?

I think CH should be about developing good ideas into working businesses... but this isn't happening on a wide spread scale. I attribute some of it to some animosity I sense within the community.

Time to regroup, connect with your fellow CH community members (through some laughs) and then get to work.

I like this. This place does not have much of a community feel to it. This is like going on a work retreat.

Nice idea, but I think you can better (also) post this to the forums.

It is already in the forums. It seems that some people have trouble finding the forums. I helped people along with the link above.

Ok, good (there should be a direct button to the forums again; like there was in the CH beta versions...)

So far I have only received two entries for the contest, so that tells one of a few things

- People don't like interacting, even if you can win money
- No one has any funny pictures
- I made the contest guidelines too confusing
- I have made too many people mad...
- or... what does that tell me?

Thought, comments, suggestions?

Should interaction exist outside of the weekly tournaments? And if it should, should it be just businesses or something more?

Looks like one of my idea's, be able to make puzzles of environments and be able to use 0900 numbers and other kind of voice applications. Maybe we should we have a talk together and merge our thoughts. We should focus on one nice feature and build it out later with more.

A site where you can find and be able to create funny things todo in your neighborhood.

Not quite like you idea. My idea would be free and would have nothing to do with voice applications. This idea is not meant to make money, but merely to allow people to be more connected within a community.

Specifically I am making these suggestions so they can be implemented in the CH community.

Yeah I like this meet up outside thing, someone else had proposed meeting up with some people for beers. Beers, games, or even better a combo of the 2 are all good in my book, any excuse will do.

lol, yes, meeting in person is the best option.

I know... CH should pull an Oprah by giving away free trips to all active members so we can meet up. Of course they would need a bank account as full as Oprah's, which presents a bit of a problem...

What a great way to putter away the afternoon. I like the pics!

I think its a neat idea. Probably not something I'd have submitted as an IdeaWarz idea, but I like the pictures that were posted as a result.

I'm hoping we can come up with ways to help build the community, but that scales. Airplane tickets don't scale.

Yes, I knew it wasn't an idea. It was a shameless exploitation of the system....

Before the handy link on the side to the forums I think some folks had trouble finding the forums. If you want me to make it private, let me know and I would be happy to do so.
