Abstract: A computing device for online idea collaboration includes a processor, and a computer readable storage medium. The processor creates a publishing module programmed to allow authors to publish ideas, the publishing module including an interface that requests various information regarding each of the ideas. The processor creates a ratings module programmed to allow reviewers to rate each of the ideas, the ratings module presenting questions to the reviewers to allow the reviewers to rate each of the ideas. The processor creates a valuation module programmed to calculate a ratings value for each of the ideas, the ratings value being based, at least in part, on data from the ratings module, and the ratings value providing an estimate of each idea's chances for success.
