Reminder Button to Help You Not Forget in the Real World
Why?
It would be helpful if I could remember to do something that is connected to a specific place in the real world.
How?
Have a small button you can place anywhere (magnetic, adhesive back etc.). You record a message on it like “throughout old stuff”, and place it where you need to do what you need to do. When you come close to it it will play back what you recorded.

Selfie Stick for Panoramic Pictures
Why?
When you’re on a balcony and would like to extend where your camera is when taking a panoramic picture, or you want a panoramic selfie from a little distance.
How?
Have a mechanism that at a push of a button both starts the panoramic photo exposure on the camera and also start rotating the camera from one end of the scene to the other.

Servers That Run Only Inside Browsers
Why?
No fixed physical server locations. Ad hoc solutions. Security. Anonymity.
How?
Build a javascript based server, complete with communication stack, encryption, and processing, to enable all this. The code could be easily distributed by including it on any (and many) web page. Running it is just going to a web page with the code on it and giving permissions for the code to do its thing.

Youth Day/Week at Retail Stores
Why?
For the tweens and teens, it’s an opportunity to see how working works and show they can do more. For retailers, it’s a chance for publicity and showing potential future workers it can be a good career.
How?
Have the young adults apply for different jobs at the stores. Interview them and pick the ones that fit. Then train them little by little (could be a whole semester’s course), then have a day or a week when they operate the store (with not so visible supervision.)
