You can't get a patent on your idea, only on an actual product or invention. I agree with the other guy: Don't tell anyone if it's just an idea and you don't want anyone to steal it! Unless you need financing to develop it, of course...

You can't get a 'patton' on an idea. You can't even get a patent on an idea, only an invention. If you don't want your idea copied, don't tell anyone about it.
