We add a short word "Baked" to a link which leads to a predecessor of the idea. That's what the hyenas are interested in, but there is the other side of the coin: if the idea looks truly original, we are interested in its outcomes, and what influence did it after all make. We want a different word next
to such link.
The word "impact" however is too strong to denote any outcome of an idea, such as a follow-up conversation in another place of the internet. [marked-for-outcome], simply [an-outcome], or simply [outcome] seem to be sufficient a tag to enable us to distinguish quickly, what were the outcomes of the ideas, because searching for a string "outcome]" does not return any results.
Now someone needs going through all of the ideas and checking this out... It's a lot of work, but I'm sure it would elucidate the overall impact of Halfbakery on the modern world, and that could be an encouraging reward for our ideation.
What's more -- perhaps each user is best familiar with the results of their ideas.
On HB search.

This sounds like a good idea - let everyone know how it turns out, won't you ? |
|
|
Not really meta level halfbakery. |
|
|
Forgot to mention that this concerns links. |
|

Sometimes I see things on TV that have been previously halfbaked here. Then also, sometimes I see / hear something that I think someone already baked on a TV sit-com or something, that someone has posted as an original idea here. (GIGO) |

How kind of you to volunteer! |
|
|
Yes, yes; please elucidate. And remind people who bake my grand schemes that I am due a Tshirt. |

Laughing Hyenas and Vulture Capitalists.
Sounds like David Attenborough meets Dragons den. |

"Survival of the Fittest" ... "Evolution by Natural Selection" ... Charles Darwin would be throwing his top hat in the air, yodelling. |

'Vulture Capitalists' - is that a reference to Hilary Davey's hunching shoulder pads? (Devey, afraid not). |

I had an idea that was deleted because of "cruelty to animals",
but then I saw that exact idea come up on a US late night show
many years later. It was an exact copy of the drawing that I
made. |
|
|
It was a dog carrier with a muzzle at one end and a screw at the
other end, that screwed into the rear end of the dog. |
|
|
I think it might have got half a laugh, and was quickly dropped
behind the table. |
|
|
[Ling], you made me laugh. Genius. If the idea was found to be baked independently of HB, we can't say it's an outcome of the idea posted: we still say it's baked, albeit later. So, but if you say "It was an exact copy of the drawing that I made," then it has to qualify. |
|
|
I think it's a good'un, this. And people do like to
point out their idea has become a lucrative reality,
though depressingly lucrative for someone else. |
