I do think that's one of our biggest (if not the biggest) challenge.
Our "chicken" in the equation would be the entrepreneurs who post. We need to incentivize them to post to a safe platform that they get something out of, but in a way that saves them time and/or money (otherwise they'd use their own launchpage + adwords and/or the launchrock-esque services).
Our "egg" is the volume of (quality) users for feedback.
Then how do you get more chickens who make more eggs?
There might be a tiered posting service. Maybe one free, one cheap (feedback + full share feature + meta tags for SEO), and one more expensive -- but includes targeted keywords that you choose and targeted feedback from a group of users. Too early to tell at this point, but with enough awesome feedback like this, and eventually some initial users, I'm sure we'll get this figured out.
I don't think it's really a chicken/egg here. If you could instantly solve the problem of having lots of entrepreneurs posting that wouldn't necessarily create any value for potential users (beyond app discovery, which there are better places to go to discover existing apps, not just potential apps).
What's in it for the user giving me feedback on my app idea?
You could pay them, but then that would make it really expensive to run and end up with people gaming the system with low-quality feedback.
The best thing I can think of (and I'm not sure it would work) is to have the developer pledge, say, 20 promo codes to you. Then if someone reviews the app idea, they get the promise of a free copy once the app was released. I would be willing to do this, but I know other developers are more reluctant than me to part with their promo codes.
