IdeaWarz Weekly Winner - World Guestbook

Ever woken up in a haze, wondering where the heck you were last night… yesterday… or even last week? Have you ever thought to yourself, “These aren’t my clothes!” or “I’m covered in blood, but I don’t see any cuts on myself?”

Then I’m sorry, I can’t accept your friendship on Facebook.

But Magickaito does have an idea that may help you! World Guestbook - I WAS HERE!

World guest book: A mobile phone application which allows you to leave a message at virtually any corner in the world - depending on where you are currently located! It works just like how lovers carved their names on a tree in a park they met or how backpack travelers painted their names and dates at a corner in a backpackers hostel.

Obviously, Magickaito isn’t focusing so much on people who continually forget where it is they’ve been, but rather people who would use it for sentimental reasons. By targeting the “can-remember” demographic Magickaito is likely to pull in more advertising revenue, and will spend far less time helping members remember their passwords.

Congratulations Magickaito, on submitting this week’s winning idea!

Blue and Gord Pick Their Favorite Ideas

  • Blue likes: What to do tonight? by ooper

    Have you and your significant other, or friends been faced with the question: what do we do tonight that would fit our location, date/time, budget and taste?

  • Gord likes: SocialHeroes by mlimotte

    Create a badge or widget for public profiles like Facebook, personal blogs, etc., to honor every day heroes and thereby encourage additional participation.

Worst Idea of the Week

  • We Make Your Fantasies Come True by nitro

    A social network with anonymous profiles.
    You share your secret wishes, and look at others.
    The power of network helps your fantasies come true.
    Many times you share an idea or an experience with someone so you can help each other.. or there is group that you can join… Life is short, at least give it a try…

Nitro forgot the first unwritten rule of IdeaWarzdon’t post drunk! Which he followed by forgetting the second unwritten rule of IdeaWarzmonitor your ideas for constructive feedback, and get engaged in the discussion.

This was Nitro’s first idea submission, but hopefully not his last.

Gord vs 202.84.X.Y and 203.177.X.Y

This week I purged 55 people from our Community. This action wasn’t performed without careful deliberation of the consequences… Blue and I debated the proper course of action for a minute. Which works out to more than 1 second per boot recipient.

Hopefully this will improve the signal to noise ratio on our site!

    I have a counter idea to social heroes… it is called anti-social heroes.

    With badges such as
    “I helped your mom get her groove back”
    “I helped my self to the lunch you brought. It was good”

    :)

    Might make for a good TV show too.

    Rock Band! Hopefully that will be under my tree this year, I haven’t been this excited about a video game since I was 11 years old and I somehow convinced my mom to let me open Street Fighter II a week early. Hope you all have a great holiday!
