Army of Users to “Clean” “Yellow” Web Pages

Why?

Many web pages exist that are today’s equivalent of “yellow” newspapers. They are not very particular about what they publish as long as they get the clicks.

How?

These websites rely on user behavior, so let’s make them change by obscuring their metrics. Create an army of participating users that “behave” in counter-intuitive ways to confuse these websites. By commenting and liking and visiting all kinds of pages on these sites, if done in sufficient numbers, will obscure the accurate view of user behavior from the publisher. These should be centrally coordinated and seem totally random.

Easier Automatic Pool Cleaning

Why?

Instead of using a net and going after the leaves and similar things that get in the pool.

How?

A mechanical system that spreads a fine mesh on the bottom of the pool. Starting on one side this net stretches on the bottom of the pool, as close to the floor as possible, and stirs up the debris that is there. When the net reaches the other side, after a short waiting period, it is pulled back at a slightly higher elevation, the furthest end being pulled in first, trapping the debris on the way back and pulling it into a disposal container built into the system, behind the wall where it’s installed.

Cling-on Stretch Eyewear Satchel

Why?

To protect and keep eyewear (optical and sunglasses) clean.

How?

Make the satchel from a material that has the same qualities as the ones used to clean the lens, but that can also stretch. The satchel is smaller than the eyewear, so when you push it inside it stretches and conforms to the shape of the eyewear. Before you take it out you can wipe it while still inside and take it out cleaned.
