Need Android App ideas I know the Apple app store has many more apps than the Android app store, but the Android community is growing every day.

As I'm getting into Android App development, I'm looking for some nifty ideas, whether it be utilities or games. Obvously nothing as crazy as Angry Birds, slimeboy or Pacdroid, but even simple apps like checklists and Can Knockdown go a long way...

Website for Good Ideas I thought I was the first person to think of building a website like this, but i guess someone beat me to the punch. Sometimes I wonder if every idea has already been thought of, but was just never put down on paper. I believe everyone has good ideas, but a genius makes them public.

Receipts by Email I know the Apple store does this, and it's a good idea, but more and more stores should give receipts by email...maybe even an app that you can transfer through your phone. This way, you'll save on paper, and it'll be easier for you to find a receipt if you need to return something.

Cell Phone with Shaker Power Why don't they make a cell phone that one could shake to charge, like emergency flashlights? With enough shaking, it would be fully charged.

The Coming 3D Dystopia The is less an idea than a prognostication. With the profusion of 3D movies being released and 3D TVs now shipping from Japan, I think the future won't be so much full of Star-Wars-esque holograms but rather 3D media much like what we have today.

I'm predicting that in the next ten years people everywhere will own 3D-ready prescription glasses and contact lenses. It just wouldn't be the future if corporations couldn't charge to enhance the experience of being constantly bombarded by their advertisements everywhere you go. They have the technology to make them visible without lenses, but ...

Movies on Thumb Drives How long do you give it until DVDs become an obsolete form of media? I'm thinking movies will eventually all be on thumb drives, and TVs will have USB ports to plug the movies into. Think about how much space we would be saving without all the decks piled up beneath the television, not to mention all the wires behind the TV which we won't need anymore.

Virtual clipboard Image a kind of clipboard device. It would either have a marker board, or maybe even accommodate a real paper tablet. It also has a port for an SD card or USB flash drive, or maybe even built in storage. As you write, draw or make notes on it, everything you create could be stored on the internal memory and then transferred to other devices. It could have OCR as well, so anything you write would be converted to text.

Touch Screen Menus Stop me if this already exists, but why not have touch screen menus set up at restaurant tables. That way, when you are seated, you can browse around the menu and order at your leisure. You can basically just add the item you want to a "cart", and the order would be sent directly to the kitchen computer (similar to fast food kitchens). The wait staff can then bring it to you once it's ready.

Digital library made easy with bar code reader It would be easy to scan all the bar codes of my books or dvds to create a digital library - I would even allow Amazon to scan it to provide me with suggestions. If I can also rate my books the suggestions will become even more accurate.

Thin-client notebook computers for home PC portability Cloud computing has become a huge ordeal in the IT industry. Some companies are now investing in "thin-clients" they give to their staff, which are basically input/output devices like monitors, keyboards and mice. The actual "computers" are virtualized on servers in another room or off-site.

I think they should make laptops that come equipped with just a screen, keyboard, USB ports for mice and peripherals, and a stripped down version of a motherboard / CPU. The theory is the notebook can ONLY be used for Remote Desktop connections. Then it'd need software on the "host" computer that co...

Online song trimming website I know there are a ton of downloadable applications that can trim songs, but without installing anything, it'd be cool if I could just go to a website and trim a song to the part I want, then click "download" so I can use it as a ringtone or windows sound effect etc.

Email print manager - Doesn't everyone hate it when printing an email means that you have to rpint the entire thread? Wouldn't be good if you could jsut print the part that you need? Someone needs to develop a plugin or similar that can be used with popular email programs....
People often send me emails that have come from someone else, who has recieved ti from someone else who.....(you get the picture).

Such emails can be very long & when you go to print them out, you are forced to print the whole thing - which could run into pages & pages wasted paper.....I'm no tree hugger, but it really irks me that you have to print the whole email every time you print.

TALK SAFELY COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (TSCS) is a system designed to make communication between driver row seats and third row seats easier.  The TALK SAFELY COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (TSCS) is a method of providing safe communication from driver to rear passengers in particularly large vehicles; i.e. SUV’S, minivans, etc. TSCS eliminates drivers over-the-shoulder conversation while increasing safety. This said method allows the driver to focus 100% of his/her attention facing forward when communicating with rear passengers. The art of this invention is to create a mental sense of awareness from driver to  rear passengers. By instinct the brain tell us to face the person we our communicating with. When drivin...
