Whatever happened to "Don't be evil"?

awww damn, i thought this was literally going to be a website dedicated to solving functions...

There is potential here - particularly if you are a holder of a well conceived idea of global importance. Some of us have that, some don't. One thing is for sure - any idea that looks beyond the ever present short term to a direction of true goal and incredible benefit needs an outlet for consideration.

So much for viewing the Snaps section on iPad. What happened to using j-query for effects?

If its for the common good then the ideas should be given freely, to create a better world for everyone...

Yeah. Last week I walked in a meeting room and someone had written, "solve for x where 3x - 12 = 89" on the white board. So traumatic, I left for the day...

I could see this working as more of a hub for inventors, techies, and those with problems they need help with where they all collaborate to come up with solutions to various problems. That would be a cool, innovating, and possibly successful site. This just sounds like Google is making a site where you can give away your ideas.
