There are two real problems I see with a site like this-
The first is that the people working on it aren't friends- They don't know each other well, so won't have the relationship to whether what comes..
The second is that people who are pulled together like this are unlikely to care deeply about the same idea..
The idea behind wanting co-founders is people who both believe in a dream, and can help each other through it.. That's not something that a site like this helps with.
well, all I can tell you is that from looking at the logs, there are a lot of people out there who are searching for someone with common interests that they must not be finding through normal channels. I'm especially seeing it with people overseas -- that was a surprise for me. I think that is a strong indicator that YCombinator has large overseas following.
