I have a cool idea for Photosynth, how can I suggest it so that it will get attention from the Photosynth team?

That’s a great question Ken <g> GetSatisfaction makes it easy to suggest new ideas or to add your vote to ideas that others have suggested. Here’s a quick overview of how to submit your ideas to make sure they get noticed.

1. Submit your thoughts as an idea. Get Satisfaction allows you to ask questions, report problems, heap praise and suggest ideas. Putting your comments into an idea maximizes the chances that we’ll see it.
2. Search for existing ideas first. If someone else has already submitted your idea then it’s more effective to click the “I like this idea!” button. That will raise the rank of the idea and cause it to bubble to the top when you sort ideas by popularity. You can add your own thoughts to the comment and when the team reviews popular ideas we’ll see all the comments along with the original post.
3. Break your suggestions into logical chunks. Your kitchen sink post with 25 bullet point suggestions is less likely to get “me too” responses than something simple like “Provide me a way to mark my favorite synths”
4. Give your idea a descriptive title. Remember, you’re trying to attract the attention of other synthers as well as the employees.
5. Fill in all the details. I’d recommend writing the basic idea in the description and if you have extended thoughts add a comment.

That’s it! Get Satisfaction makes it easy to view the ideas by popularity or by by recent activity if you’re curious what others are suggesting.

Good synthing!
