The CAPTCH appears also when I'm logged in which is annoying, other then that - I find it very intuitive. Good job! :)

  • What does "Post code segments" mean?
  • Doesn't it already have OpenID?
  • You know what would be cool with comments? Being able to comment on a single line, multiple lines, or the thing as a whole.
  • An Push and a Pull API (would allow Druplicon integration if we somehow managed to get Drupalbin to push new posts with tag irc-drupal or something to Druplicon via XML-RPC).
  • URLs that allow posting to a specific tag (e.g. drupalbin.com/tag/drupal)

Make posts to DrupalBin with either Drupal 5, 6 or 7 colour highlighting.

Hmmm, it does!

Interesting! Maybe something like Node Comments where when you make a comment, it would actually be code that you're re-submitting so that you could add comments in there and see the code evolve as the comments are made
An Push and a Pull API (would allow Druplicon integration if we somehow managed to get Drupalbin to push new posts with tag irc-drupal or something to Druplicon via XML-RPC).
For sure! I'd love to see more service related stuff in there. Post to DrupalBin from some blogging software, anything to bring it more out of the website itself
URLs that allow posting to a specific tag (e.g. drupalbin.com/tag/drupal)
Would this have to do with Organic Groups? Taxonomy? How would this work?

I'm just going to spit stuff out here and think aloud

Urls - i think we just code a small menu callback taht calls back to node_add and has a little alter that prepopulates it

Push and pull api - can also go in the module.

Comments - i don't think nodecomment would work, why not just make them full-on nodes and theme it so it looks cool.

Another thing that I though of that might be kind of hard: drupalbin.com/cvs/contributions/modules/views/views.module: shows the views module code in CVS, except highlighted. Then you can hit the fix link and make a local version.

Also, generating a unidiff between versions that everyone can see.

In fact, why don't we show a tree of fixes in the sidebar next to the node! this would be very very hard but very very awesome. If we stored the parent in a hidden nodereference, then we do some sort of fancy query and sort it, except it couldn't be a nodereference if it was to pull from CVS. If someone wants this then i can set up a chipin :-)
Then you check the checkboxes for two versions and hit the "show diff" button, which shows you a unidiff and also lets you download it.

Also on a different train of thought

Social and non-social pastebins - make it very clear what the benefits of an account are, make it easy and motivating to get one, and make it so you can have private pastes when you have an account - and make a list of YOUR pastes somewhere.

Make it easily filterable by tags, etc.

Oh. And make it look good (not garland).
