Idea for app: Concept Store.

The idea is basically an application where people come up with ideas for innovations, and they can discuss ideas for those innovations here.

PERSONAS OF THE TARGET MARKET:

-->

1. Busybodies who want to see if they can work out solutions to the worlds problems

2. writers and artists who want to test concepts, whether certain real world solutions to problems are practicable

3. “puzzle solvers”, people who just like to be given a problem to solve, not for the sake of making the world better, but because they want to show off their problem solving skills.

4. people who like to prove others wrong; who like to tell others exactly why something will not work.

 Creative and intelligent people who have lots of time and want to explore their potential, and the feasibility of their ideas, and would like to collaborate in their ideas.

Nick is unemployed, but does occasional casual work, so he is often travelling on  public transport, on the move, and is always thinking of real world problems to solve. Because he is on the move, he is often turning to his Iphone for entertainment, and likes to use it for social networking. He tries to keep busy, but he often is kept waiting for relatively short periods of time when he gets a bit bored. He likes to debate and argue with people, and feels he has a lot to add to any argument.

Dave is recently retired, and wants the kind of social life where he can impart his expertise to everybody, he enjoys interacting and arguing with people, and has recently bought his first Ipad. 

 First wireframe mockups of the product:

The idea is to have people put up their idea for a new product or service or whatever, and ask others to critique these products or services. I ran these wireframes past some volunteers and here are their critiques:

-->

There needs to be a Login system/screen

More room in the chat dialog screen- This can be done by adjusting the size of the dialog boxes and using up the empty space

Turn logo into watermark, which can be used on all screens

Labels on the chat dialogs, time and datestamp and icons.

The new layout takes more advantage of the available space, other improvements that can be made will be more datestamping .
