Help out a pal with a website idea

[mfaye21]

Hi,
I am currently in the process of reading The Facebook Effect (which by the way is a fantastic book) and it's motivating me to start something, something big. Yes, I know I sound crazy but, seriously, why not try? So after searching around my brain I got the idea for a link sharing website. I have always wanted a place that I could share links with friends/the world and have them share links with me/the world. Ok, so I got my idea and love it...until I remember that Digg exist. Blehhh. It does the exact same thing that I was going to do plus more. So, what I am asking is how can I take this awesome idea and expand on it to make it unique?
Thanks,
-Max

So, wait, let me get this straight. You've got a generic idea that has been done to death by hundreds of other sites and you want someone else to give you the new, exciting, unique bit that will make your site a must-go-to? If I had such an idea why on earth would I give it to you?
