Yes, the site is badly designed and overloaded, and most of the entries don't even qualify, let alone work in a useful way. I hope some of the members here will help to raise the level of response. Given the nature of large corporations, the whole thing could easily do more harm than good, but some more informed and intelligent dialogue could help.
I used to wonder why the best promoters never seemed to be teamed up with the best inventors. It turns out that the last thing a salesman wants to hear from his peers is "Well, Anyone could sell that!" They want to succeed on their own merits, and can show off by promoting a fraud. The hordes of optimists who navigate through life without doing their sums make it easy.
