I was thinking it would be cool to have bionic legs that regenerate as you walk with the Bionic features turned off. There would be a motor in the knee and ancle joint area and a battery belt, as you walk the motors would do nothing accept charge batteries. Then when you press the bionic button you could either run fast or jump high etc.
Common you know you want Bionic legs ;)
Random, yeah, I think so...

Tool Party
Women have pampered chef and candle party's and basket party's. I think guys should have tool party's.
The way it works, you have a project say a deck you want to build and you know your friend is a host for these things, so you call him up and ask him to give you a hand. Pretty much you are responsible for getting all the materials and have the tools you would normally use. Your friend brings a sampling of tools from what ever company sponsor it, maybe Black and Decker. So as you build he shows you how much easier it is when you have the "right tool". Ideally you would have a bunch of friends over so they can all help and learn about the tools. He could also have things out of his house, where he is building things and you can come over help and learn.
If you wanted to take it to a larger scale the parent company purchase run down places and then has all the "parties" at the run down place and at the end donates the house to charity, similar to habitat for humanity, but a focus on selling tools...

evite / mypunchbowl enhancement
I think evite and mypunchbowl should have a way to auto update or send a cal entry to google calendar. Such easy integration that would help my life be a little easier to manage. Ohh and it should be as easy as add to calendar, and if I have an account it should auto add on accept...
Wow just double checked after Andy said mypunchbowl already does most of it, and sure enough they do, one more reason to never use evite and start using mypunchbowl!

Search for a cause
I posted this then took it down cause I contacted MS to see if they would be interested in actually doing this... But don't see it happening so I am reposting...
Search for a cause, aka we get tied into google's affiliates and other search engines affiliates, Amazon etc... When a user goes to our site, they become a member and can choose the charity they want to donate any income from there seach to go to, all they have to provide is an e-mail address or contact number, we will reach out to the charity find out there info and once we get $100 we will send them a check. As people use us they will spread the word and more people from that organization will use us etc... All you need is a simple DB with users / preferences (What search engine they want to use as the default) and a DB of charities and some way of mapping users to income from the search engine (Could be as simple as we divide by the percentage of use, if 10% of the search is for skin cancer then we give 10% of the profit to skin cancer non profit. We will give 100% of the profit to the non-profits, but keep an administrative fee / money to cover expenses... Once it is built we could also do search for the future, where parents search and we put money into a fund for there child's education Or justsearch for yourself...

Do not mail list
Everyone is familiar with the Do Not call Lists, to avoid time wasting calls from telemarketers, what about a do not mail list. Just some way to stop all the mail I get and just tear up or shred and thow away. I get catalog for the people that lived at my house 6 years ago, as well as 10 credit card applications a day, I wish there was a way to make all that waste just go away! Perhaps some number to call on the mail or a link to unsubscribe. SPAM has a unsubscribe why not postal mail?

Meghan's Choose you own adventure website
Do you remember the choose your own adventure books, what about a web site where you can choose from the original choose your own adventure library or contribute your own book (we would have the framework available to authors) and the revenue would be generated by adds in between sections, i.e. when you click go down the hallway there would be an ad then the next section would show.
World Record Tag
So the idea is to have a festival with a huge all day game of tag, and base would be the area with a stage / band and food etc...
This is a past idea that my girlfriend Meghan and I had come up with...

Vegas Show
I think they should have a vegas style show with dance crews.
I saw a show a while back on MTV, I think it was called americas best dance crew. I would like to see that in person, they were doing all sorts of crazy acrobatic moves and it was all very impressive...

Past Idea that my friend suggested I post
Some way to capture the heat off the road, it seems as though roads are huge collectors of solar energy, it would be nice if there was some way to reclaim that from either a car or something built into the road. My idea was a grid that is paved into the road that heats up from the road surface, perhaps something that expands and contracts based on heat and cool, I dunno just a thought...

50 day moving averages
I was behind a day so here is my extra thought to catch me up...
Tonight in class we are talking about technical stock analysis and the fact that people use the moving averages to decide on when to buy and sell stocks. Traditionally they use 50 day or 200 day moving averages example my idea revolutionary and will guarentee you know all the important info prior to your day trading buddies... 49 and 199 day moving averages!

Windows Mobile integration
So I atttended the Microsoft ISU yesterday and was talkign to a bunch of people there about windows mobile devices. And what cool stuff they should be doing,
First they should have more apps like sideshow.
My second thought they are already talking about, zune and windows mobile consolidation or at least a zune interfrace on WM devices.
The third thought is to have integration between the xbox 360 and WM perhaps a way to extend content to WM devices, or to use it as a remote or play selection in a football game / search your music library etc....
Forth, extend the hat netflix relationship to include a WM client for playit now functionality ;)
