Credentialed Review System

Why?

Today anyone can write a review online. Yelp, Amazon etc. all give you the option, and most encourage you to write a review. But how do you know who’s review is any good?

How?

Ask reviewers to also give their “credentials”. These can be anything that is relevant to the subject matter they are reviewing. Education, experience, publications etc. all with some references. Possibly have these reviewed by editors to try and confirm them. The reviewer gets a platform to boost their authority, and the reader gets credible reviews.

Book Summary Center

Why?

People can share their good (or bad) book summaries so others can skip reading the whole book and get the gist of it (if the summary is comprehensive enough.) Readers can also get a better insight and help them decide whether to read the whole book.

How?

Have a site where people can submit their summaries for new books or even books that already have other summaries. Use a rating system to give priority to users who’s summaries are better.

Alert Me When My Child Is Not Where He’s Supposed to Be

Why?

Have peace of mind. Know when my kids are not where they are supposed to be.

How?

Have an app installed on their smartphone (whether you tell them or not is your decision) that can take your remote commands. When you know they are supposed to be with a friend for a certain amount of time you define the time frame, the location, and radius. If they go out of the radius within the time frame allotted, you’ll get an alert and can see where they are currently. Can also be used to signal you if they are supposed to leave and they are still there 🙂

Voting and Betting Board for Up Coming Product Releases

Why?

  1. You can vote on what the new product will be like. Features, design etc.
  2. You can bet on the best predictions.
  3. You can follow and then see who was right.

How?

A site where the editors put out new product releases for voting. People can also bet and suggest new features they think will be part of the new product.
