Having become a huge fan of aggregators and syndicated content, and of the "Why Not" site, I was thinking that perhaps they could get together.

Why not use something like RSS or RDF to feed new ideas to those who subscribe. At this point all new ideas could be syndicated - if the feed got too big, then member user preferences might be added.

I know the "Most Recent" and "Top Rated" areas enable much of this functionality, but a syndicated feed would enable users of aggregators to see all new content automatically.

Just an Idea :-)
