I don’t think that these are around really, but what I think would be a good thing is sit up straps. Little straps that go around your toes and lock underneath a door so you can do sit ups more effectively. Just a quick one here.

I have been really in to API’s lately. What we would create is a build your own board game website. Pretty much all board games have a dice, characters that move along the game board, and you answer challenging questions. What we would do is build a create your own game board website where users can create their own, possibly using their flickr photos, and submit it to the forum or save it for private use. The top 5 games will all be put in to production and sold to the masses with the creator getting a % of the profits. Anyone can buy their own created gameboard for like $50.

The christmas lights across the street from my house are Ghetto, fabulously ghetto. They have an inflatable tigger holding a present in the tree in front of them, which is wrapped in blinking colored lights, and has two blinking candycanes in front of it. And that is just the tree. The house is Christmas Ghettofied! So what we would do is create a hot or not type site and upload pictures of Ghetto Christmas houses. The houses would get voted on and the winner / top ten would get prizes. In fact, this would probably be easy to do with ning. I think that they have the tools all set up.

The X-shredder is a hand little tool that looks kind of like a claw with a handle on the end. When you press a button on the handle, it unwraps your present quickly and easily. It would scare the hell out of kids and pets at the destruction it leaves behind, which is your present. With one click it would rotate and rip the wrapping paper off of your present within like 2 seconds.

The De-onionizer idea is a spray that you spray in the air right before you cut onions. What it does is magically find the particles that are the ones that make you cry and destroy them!! Not sure how that would work out, but I wish there was this product and I do not think that there is.

Its a mySpace site for “crews.” Each crew, like “The Idiots,” would be given their individual page and then they could interact with other crews out there. Everybody has their own crew and from time to time you feel like a change up. Go to a different bar, different dive, have new conversations about different things etc… It seems like whenever someone new is introduced in to a crew, they pretty much do not last, but if you could get two or more crews together, then it might make for new fun times, or at least a pretty good rumble. Man I love rumbles.

A plain and simple idea. We would create a simple web app that teachers would use to help parents help their children with homework. I know damn well that I cannot do long division, that is what they made calculators for right? But the point would be that it would be a guide for parents to use to assist little Johnny and little Janey with their homework and cut out the frustration and the embarrassing moment in which a parent realzes that they are unable to do 3rd grade math.

Bought an expensive item at a knock-off price? Want to impress your amigos with the weight of your wallet? Want your boss to think that the $10 wal-mart scarf you got him costs $45 from Macy’s? Just log on to FakePriceTag.com and enter in the UPC code. What FakePriceTag.com would do is create an authentic price tag (that would work at stores if they return it) with an inflated price printed on it.
“Oh ooops, I forgot to take the tag off, sorry.” Only FakePriceTag.com would be the wiser.

Every two years my cell phone contract comes up and I go through the painful process of studying the cell phone market, all the offers, all the phones, etc… and usually just end up sticking with what I have got. Anyway, in my apartment there is a small area of our back room that gets no signal. It is a 2′ x 2′ space I estimate. One worry I get when thinking about switching phone companies is, will I get range in my apartment? Well, with CellRadar, there would be no worries. I would basically be a little mp3 sized screened devise that would tell you how many bars of range that each phone company gets in each spot. This would help businesses thinking of relocating, anybody who is thinking about switching cell services, and trade show organizers (???).

Whenever there is a big snow storm coming or happening I always spend hours staring out the window wondering how many inches of snow we got. So what do you have to do to find out? You have to go outside in the cold and measure. So instead you could use the indoor electronic snow guage. It would show the number of inches of snow, but also the snow density (whether it is fluffy snow, the kind that drifts or the kind that packs a mean snowball).
