Thanks for the kind words and the suggestions!
Well, yes.. today after somebody posted this to HN, the unregistered unknown internet surfers some spam opinions too. But I think, when we launch the registeration recquired site, the ratio of spam and unuseful opinions and comments will drop.
Quora is knowledge based, ChilledLime is opinion based. Delivering the same, or better knowledge in a more democratic way.

I like the concept. Can you say what you mean by 'decidable'? I had assumed that you meant something that could eventually be empirically determined, but your example makes clear that that is not what you mean.

Thanks!
Yes, I meant something very close to your description. Although, I also think, that this experiment with a question that is very timely (in this case: the fight of mobile phones), failed, because it fails to communicate the real value of this platform. The value of getting opinions or (sometimes) feedback on your own thoughts and decisions!
They should replace it with a question that most visitors are neutral and/or not too interested to.
- What are the plans to maintain relevant, and insightful conversations?
- I may be missing something, but how is this different than something like Quora?
I do like the striped colors at the top representing what items have been voted for. Overall this looks cool. Good work!

Thanks Karika for submitting! Looking forward to the thoughts of the HN community here!

(Here is the scenario: You are at a sports store and you see 3 sneakers you really like but not sure which one you want so.
- You pop open your "ChilledLime" app (it sorta looks like instagram)
- You pick number of sides to your discussion (In this case 3)
- You can simply add the sneakers and then post
- You can also select the camera icon
So you take lets say 3 consecutive shots each for the sneakers.
Then you wait for opinions of the ChilledLime community. )
UPDATE: Fixed it. Got rid of the hackers!
