  • I've just read about this on MSE and although Idea Connection looks like very specialist science problems I found some of the InnoCentive ones to be really interesting and they stimulated some ideas... especially the ones relating to business and social development. I was just wondering if anyone on here has had any luck with these types of sites? The old thread has been closed and there's no discussion in here so I'm guessing it's one of the less popular methods of working from home.

    I was wondering the same thing, SomethingGood. I've only just read about this and would love to have feedback from anyone who's tried either InnoCentive or Idea Connection.

    Whilst I love the idea, everything seems too specialist and so I don't think this is a good way for the many to make money.
  • I would feel a bit intimated.

    I am the same. I was thinking of getting some ideas and feedback from forumites with experience on these sites too but it appears there is less activity on the forum about these. I am however going to try it anyway and would come back with some first hand feedback once I have tried it myself.
    Thanks
