Wridea Is An Online Organiser For Your Ideas
If you’ve ever wanted a one-stop shop for saving, organsing and sharing your ideas, web application Wridea might be just what you are looking for.
Once you’ve signed up and created a free account, you can add new ideas, categorise them and share them with your friends using the very simple web interface—in fact, that’s the drawback of using this tool instead of Evernote or OneNote – it doesn’t have enough features for a power user used to tagging and sorting their thoughts.
On the other hand, it does have the ability to share ideas and feedback with your friends, an interesting developer API for third-party add-ons, and a unique “Idea Rain” visualisation that drops your ideas into the screen—so it could be worth a look for anybody looking for a completely web-based solution to storing and sharing ideas.

@Moses Quetzalcoatl Bratrud: Update: I'm now testing Wridea against Evernote, which I predict will be way better. I wonder if on this occasion the Lifehacker editors began pushing Wridea without thorough testing to see if it was better than comparable options--something that seems important when deciding whether the newest web-app is worthy of a Lifehacker article.
But I'm nagging. Frankly, (first-time commenter) this site is just amazing. Keep up the good work.

i have so many random thoughts, this would be perfect for my councilor to figure me out...
I have more than a few problems with Wridea. Most infuriatingly, the primitive text editor for writing "ideas" has a 42-ish word limit BUT DOESN'T STOP YOU FROM TYPING. I typed a whole paragraph summary of a story idea (writer) and only the first two sentences were there when I clicked on the idea later.
Furthermore, the site apes Twitter more than a little, from the large-size font and round-cornered writing rectangles to the blue-white-dark blue color scheme.
It is a tidy simply interface, albeit slow, and could prove useful to me in the future as long as I remember the word limit.
People whose ideas generally take more than forty words, be warned.

Looks sweet. Funnily, SmartFilter at work already hates it.
My idea organizer is called notepad, it has all the features i need plus the awesome ability to actually save it in files that i can attach to emails and hence allow them to exist online.

Why would I want this instead of Google Docs?

I want to share a lot online but a big part of personal ideas, thoughts and just plain nonsense I blog on my private wordpress blog on my intranet.

I was just thinking how cool it would be to set up a friend network to share and to sync your Windows 7 sticky notes... wouldn;t even be that hard to write the app..
This seems like a sad implementation.. Feature light in a bad way.. needs to get out of the browser I think...

MediaWiki installed on my own server works well, though I use Evernote too.
Borgger.com is a much more robust alternative. Instead of just posting your own ideas, the site is about networking with people who have the skills to actually build your concepts. There are also full revision and collaboration tools. Check it out. Pretty new site but already packed with great ideas.

@YourTechSupport: Yeah, my workplace isn't big on ideas and innovation either.
I use Evernote to write all my ideas, works perfectly.
