PS: I run a site dedicated to finding co-founders: http://fairsoftware.net. So I have some experience in the topic. Share your idea: don't be scared that someone will steal it from you. Most people will think your idea is bad anyway. Your job, as the business founder, is to convince me, the technical guy, that you can make it happen. Do you have customers lined-up? Can you raise funding?
If all of these align, then get to know each other, work for a month on the idea and see how you feel then. Then formally commit.
