Hi,
I think would be nice on Symantec Connect Forums and Ideas to have a chek just after writing the "Title" , if somebody else already wrote the same idea, to avoid creation of duplicates.
This is done in forums like "Stack-Overflow" (see: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/ask)

@ .peter : Happy that you liked it and that is gone on the "to do list" ;)

@ Frank019: "If the guy didn't want to read the other idea to see if it was already ..." disagree... this makes it highly visible and hard to ignore. I am a strong supporter of this type of funcationality. Enforce good etiquette through ease of use!
