Great to see UpSwell on hacker news. David, what features are you looking to add next?

Thanks for your comments - we've got a pretty good foundation when it comes to "social" functionality, but we have more work to do there. Specifically, it needs to be easier to find people you know on the site, and our commenting system needs to be enhanced. On top of that, we're working to improve ways to discover good ideas on the site. For example, one highly requested feature is to be able to rank ideas by the number of MeToo's (as opposed to creation date). Last but not least, we're actively working on features to allow people to connect their UpSwells to the organizations/people who will be able to implement them. This is perhaps one of the more exciting features of UpSwell: to provide a platform to discover the best ideas, and then connect those with people who could bring them to life.
