Get Inspired to Create New Ideas

Why?

One of the ways you can create new ideas is just to do it – concentrate on creating a new idea. It would be helpful to get some inspiration when you’re still stuck.

How?

An app that shows you news items and interesting articles not based on personal interests, but on a smart algorithm that pulls from diverse subjects to spark a connection or a new way of looking at something, finding the problem and creating a new idea to solve it.

 

A Possible Way to Get People to Pay for Content

Why?

Most people don’t hesitate to pay for a newspaper or magazine but will probably not pay to read something similar on the web. Maybe it’s because they do not get anything physical they can say they own. They miss the feeling that owning something gives because it’s not physical.

How?

A series of experiments trying to have a physical element of owning as part of paying for an online subscription. One way might be to have a printed copy of anything they read and would like printed periodically (weekly or monthly) and delivered to the subscriber. In essence, they get their own magazine – uniquely theirs – in physical form to own forever.

 

Automating Facebook Birthdays

Why?

You get daily reminders from Facebook of online friends that have their birthday that day. You like being nice to people and send them your best wishes, even if they are not close friends. Why not automate this further?

How?

Since a lot of your online friends might not be very close to you, it would be an excellent automation feature if you could have a “standard” greeting to send automatically, something you change yearly. When you get a reminder that someone has their birthday that day, you also get to click a button to use the standard greeting for that year.

 

The Real Time Web

Why?

You want real time facts, news, information, etc.

How?

A website dedicated to having an up to date collection of other specific (not platforms like Twitter) sources on the web – all publishing real-time content.

 

Where Is the Artist You Like Showing

Why?

You have some favorite artists and would like to know where in the world are there exhibitions of their work – currently and in the future.

How?

A website where you can look up your favorite artist and see where is their work currently (and in the near future is going to be) exhibited. You get all the details like address, how to get there, opening hours, prices, etc.
