Mitch,

This is a really good idea, and some of the ideas shown are excellent.

What I'm wondering about is whether there's a forum for exchanging ideas
such as these.  (This forum seems  not to be such.)

Ideally, that forum might be a hackerspace, but one is not always able to
participate in a like-minded hackerspace.

For my part, I can often come up with ideas I have little hope of
implementing myself.  At the recent Mini-Maker Faire in Newark, I found it
stimulating to exchange ideas -- to GIVE ideas, really -- to others who
were working on projects.

Do you know of any Internet forum that leans in this direction?
