It seems a waste that Google Moderator / ProductIdeas is not used as the engine behind the feedback system for all (or more, at any rate) of Google's products. Currently, feedback mechanisms are inconsistent across product offerings, if they are even possible to find.

It would be nice if Google Product Ideas worked as it should. My votes, My Ideas, Search and All Ideas are not working.

The linked to page doesn't do anything. There are only links for the docs, youtube, and groups... what are we missing?

Hi google.
My name is Zulmy from Indonesia. Actually i have several innovative ideas suddenly came up on my mind. I think i should share it to all over the world.
I found google has a avery stong infrastructure on tech, so hope it's not that hard to you to fulfill my ideas.
I work as operational risk analytics since early 2011. When I was in high school i imagine that in the future there will be sort of ensiklopedia that can help people to learn anything. and I know thank God there is Wikipedia.
This year, I see a very tremendous insignificant work in my life (and i guess to others as well). In many countries that have traffic problem like Jakarta, Bangkok, Mexico, and many other countries, you time is really a great asset. You will find that you life is on fast forward mode, you face next weekend tomorrow and it is a nightmare for me.
I think if you can build a platform like Skype (or perhaps you can build the venture with them), who can accomodate people not necessarily to go to the office (anymore). They just login in the morning, meet their peers on the platform, send the file to their boss and meet the client (from another platform) effectively.
The platform is such as this:
(you can build GoogleWork for Office, GoogleUni for University/School, GoogleBank for Bank Activities),
Google has an ID -> they login into the platform (server in the office) -> you have profile and you can do your activities on the platform.
It is really a massive project, but for the commerce side has great prospects since many procedural-typed office work need this platform.
Thank you very much for your attention.

Well, this seems as good a place as any to cast an idea out. (I've had a similar problem with the seeming pittance of options on the Product Ideas page...
I would like Google engineers to consider creating and developing Google "Debate". You can browse the web or watch the "news" for 5 minutes (or less) and find that civilization has a crippling problem with [mis]information. Issues with broad, factual support (like global warming or evolution, among many others) are still "debated", I believe because we don't boil the arguments down to concise, logical, easy-to-follow threads. Instead, someone says a plausible falsehood today, and it's explored and exposed days or weeks later, and you may not find out. It goes back and forth, discretely, inhibiting our ability to connect and settle things.
We could solve this if there were a central point for addressing the facts and logic about critical, human issues (climate change, healthcare reform, education reform, economics, national security, on and on). There would be no "I heard this isn't true. It' sounds out there." There could (should) be provisions for establishing legitimate contributors and commentators, and the result could be truly revolutionary. Right now, we may have a Fox News or some congressman claim we have the worst deficit in 150 years, or that climate change is still 50-50; imagine if someone could simply say "that was virtually settled on Google Debates 2 years ago"?
There would be a clear logic thread and commentator-expounding of important points, with cited, archived (no dead links!) sources, so the result would put glib doubters to shame. Points deemed poorly-supported or inaccurate could be amended, flagged, or deleted (with transparency). Government and private executives would be encouraged to directly participate in standing behind the statements they make (or endure public criticism for balking). I sincerely believe such an idea could help to rescue our civilization from mind-numbing wheel-spinning brought on by unscrupulous misinformation that seems so pervasive.
If there was something already successfully addressing this issue, we wouldn't still have people wondering why the economy went south, or why our foreign policies aren't that great, or what's really wrong with "Obamacare" (if anything), or why the US lags behind the rest of the world in key educational benchmarks.
We need something straightforward, easy to understand, and authoritative. This can work. Please, please consider it.

I think Google GPS would be better if (where available) streetview was used instead of maps. At night a left turn may be required and you cannot always see where to make the left turn. With streetview a daytime picture of that area would be shown with an arrow on where to turn. I hope you use my idea!

Dear Googlean,
Congratulations “Big G” on officially becoming a teenager.
Due to Google world or universe become very small and capture most of things within a second. Thanks each and every person creating such wonderful tools and gift to entire world.
My personal idea is that can you create a special “Kids” section in Menu Bar. The Kids Section contains drawing (simple modeling tools), reading (unable read those kids), listening, writing, recording, visual education system. According to me if you want to more powerful in internet world then create “Kids” section. Example
Whatever children learnt in childhood days that never ever forget in the entire life.
So, long-term purpose it will give you great success and it will grow faster at begin of kids life.
Regards
Rajesh Mahato

Anyway, Google's biggest problem at the moment is Facebook, and how do you get users to move to Google+. E-learning environments are used in schools and universities the world over, and frankly the current tools that I've used have been awful. Since students HAVE to use these environments to find out about lecture timetables, share information etc., then offering a free first-rate e-learning tool is a perfect way to get students using Google+ and sharing information on it.
When I think about all the projects I've written, it would've been great to have had a system that really was user-friendly, in which we could share documents, ideas and have discussions, as well as some fun stuff. It seems clear to me that if you get millions of students actively using Google+ at school, then they're much more likely to keep using it when they've finished.
You're welcome ;-)

Hello Google team!
Just wanted to suggest a good substitute for finger-gesture screen unlock, that is "patented" (ha-ha) by Apple.
First of all, most of screens for now are capasitive, and probability of accidental reaction in a pocket, case or bag tends to zero (so that, unlock becames meaningless and rudimentary).
Second, there are lots of sensor even in budget models (proximity, accelerometer, light...) - that can be used to understand, if your phone is inside a bag or pocket.
So, just use this approach for auto-unlock decision: orientation of the phone must be *typical*, proximity sensor should not see something in 5-10mm, multitouch mustn't sense dispersed touches (like it should be in pocket or case).
That's all!
