input on the idea please?
jashmenn: Just do it. Like Seth says, there's no Idea Approval Board. Where you run into trouble is when you fall in love with your solution to the exclusion of seeing the actual problem.I once had a boss/mentor who believed that teachers should have a nation-wide lesson plan repository. He lamented that there was no way to get teachers to use even the most "simple" version control system (e.g. TortoiseSVN). I realize you're doing more than lesson plans, but you may want to consider teachers as a good first market.That brings me to my next point: make sure you find out who your market is _soon_. This advice is old-hat for HN folks but its worth repeating:1) Read up on mvp [1]. Create a "smoke test" to see if you're even in the right universe. We could psyche you up and tell you this the best idea ever, but until you verify that with The Internet you don't really learn anything2) Read Steve Blank's book [2]. Get out of your bubble of encouraging friends and contacts and, say, find some teachers and ask them if they would _pay_ for that sort of service. (Find people who have a problem, know they have a problem, have hacked together a solution, and who are willing to _pay_ for a better solution.)It's these visionary customers who are really the only ones who can answer this question for you.[1] http://www.startuplessonslearned.com/2009/08/minimum-viable-...[2] http://www.cafepress.com/kandsranch
