Having an audience means you can validate ideas instantly. Let's do the same w/o audience!

I have seen a few tweets from large accounts on how having an audience is an unfair advantage in the idea validation game. And I have seen the same or other accounts demonstrate that power and get tons of feedback on their new product or feature ideas with a single tweet.

This got me thinking, could we, the makers with no sizeable audience (yet) have the same thing. After all, the feedback these prominent makers receive is coming from us, right? So why don't we help out each other the same way?

Let's experiment. I just started a new Twitter account Would you pay for it? In short, you provide feedback to others, then you get to submit your own idea and get feedback in return. Here's an example post:

Now, of course people saying they would pay doesn't mean they will actually pay when the product is ready. The only real validation is an actual paying customer. Still, getting honest feedback from strangers on the internet can be much more helpful than asking friends or not asking anyone.
