Many times I've tried to convince my friends about an idea, but they almost never take it seriously until there is something they can see and touch.
That's possibly because I'm unpersuasive, or maybe my ideas suck. :D But it's a recurring theme. People, even good friends who respect you, rarely jump in on the first moment.
This is probably because they can't really see the vision, at least for some ideas, that is required in order to get excited about it. I've been working on my elevator pitch when I dream up some new idea, but as excited as I get sometimes about some new app that I think can be great, I understand that if a number of other perspectives (peoples' opinions) disagree, I'm probably deluded.

Or possibly because a vision that's not concrete doesn't mean much (too easy to overlook important stuff).
