Introduction

Ideas exchange is a concept i have been carrying in my mind for a while now. The general idea is to bring together the creators of ideas and the potential users of them as also bring together diverse groups to brainstorm ideas with or without a well defined final user. The process can eventually involve commercially viable selling of ideas as well. In addition, there can be an attempt to solve some burning issues through discussion.

Global Ideas Exchange is not a discussion board. It does not promote opinion sharing. It is not looking to promote discussion on issues being right or wrong. GiDeX is about action oriented thoughts and ideas. It also includes futuristic ideas with no feasible action possible in the present. However, the spirit is one of exploration and not one of judgment.

What will happen to ideas. People will come and post ideas. Others will comment on how good or bad the idea is (in terms of its feasibility, not morality). Some ideas may have commercial value for potential buyers. In that case, the originator may sell the idea to the buyer. If there are multiple buyers, there can be bidding.

What is the end purpose?
1. To promote more ideas amongst those who are fond of creating them and evaluating them
2. To bring together the creators and potential users of the ideas. If possible in a commercially viable manner
3. To catalog the general thinking of our times in terms of the ideas we have thought of. Maybe for study during a later time!

Happy ideating!
