All Our Ideas is an open source project maintained by the nonprofit Citizens Foundation which also provides a cloud service...
All Our Ideas grew out of a research group is led by Matthew Salganik from the Department of Sociology and Center for Information Technology Policy at Princeton University. Our project grew out of discussions between Matt and Josh Weinstein, then president of the Princeton Undergraduate Student Government, about how to collect and prioritize the ideas of Princeton students. A research group was formed, and our first project, a collaboration with the Princeton student government, called "Which do you want more?" was launched in November 2008. All Our Ideas was then launched in February 2010. Current and former group members include (in chronological order): Josh Weinstein, Nadia Heninger, Bill Zeller, Peter Lubell-Doughtie, Dhwani Shah, Adam Sanders, Bambi Tsui, Pius Uzamere, Karen Levy, Dhruv Kapadia, Dmitri Garbuzov, Brian Tubergen, Chap Ambrose, Calvin Lee, and Luke Baker. When it was a research project, All Our Ideas was supported by grants from Google, the US National Science Foundation, the World Bank, and the Center For Information Technology at Princeton University.
All Our Ideas is powered by open source software. Feel free to review, remix, or redesign. Also, you can use our API to create your own pairwise comparison site.
