The usefulness and success of BACKA 100% depends on the community culture and expertise of the people on the site*. How are you building the community and facilitating quality discussion, @danielkempe?
*I use an asterisk to emphasize that the people that provide feedback may not be the customer for one's idea and it's also important to recognize that crazy ideas that many people think won't work, are also worth exploring.

@rrhoover very true. Feedback is great and all but where it's coming from makes a huge difference
Check out this post about how we come up with and created the site in 7 days! https://medium.com/@bentossell/b...@bentossell due to time commitments and success in other areas, is no longer with us at Backa, but regularly drops in to say hello!
I like this idea. Sure it has a long way to go, but you guys can do it. :)
You see, I promised myself *not* to sign up for anything else (you should see my inbox), but I did for Backa. This is how much I like it.
Eric, the jedi hunter. :D
Totally willing to give this my support. Potentially great resource, also potentially an awkward environment I never end up using, but you only know by trying.
@bhalp1 Shot for giving us the benefit of the doubt :)

I like the idea so much, specially the analysis part, so much needed.
The only part I would recommend for you guys is to do a big effort at answering the question of what's in it for any user to go and participate and giving a feedback at any idea? Some will do as help because they are interested in the idea itself. But you need a loyal and healthy community that visit Backa on daily basis.
Therefore, I would suggest some gamification ideas around scoring systems or special offers for senior reviewers, this will come through partnerships with what Backa's community care of.
Example: You could partner with WebSummit or Pioneers Festival and offer special offers for any senior reviewers ..etc
Will think in more ideas and get back to you :)
Good luck and keep up the great ideas!
@mostafaaminway Thank you Mostafa, some great ideas there! I think at the moment, its really a place where founders help founders. I hope we can be in a position in the future where we can target specific ideas to the right people, that way you know the feedback you are receiving is relevant.
Yea, totally agree with you regarding community, and its something we are working hard on, taking some inspiration from how you guys did it here on PH.
I'm assuming the people on the site will be mostly guys like us, in the startup world, love discovering new ideas/products and willing to lend a hand in the pre-build phase.
Even the most crazy ideas, i'm sure after some discussion will seem more feasible.
Our aim is to be a place to help build up both the product itself and a potential user base. Maybe a great way to get in shape for a product hunt launch!
