Keep on the lookout for novel ideas that others have used successfully. Your idea has to be original only in its adaptation to the problem you're working on.

The Idea

I think a Hollywood - stars, type site that is posted by users who have cell phone cams, video, etc. Like TMZ but we would feature and build the profile of the user posting the great video and pics, most likely a photographer, and starting photographers. This would be a great buy out project for FLickr or someone like at since we are building a community and empowering user to submit photos, video,etc. maybe a myspace meets TMZ - stars and famous people or news worthly content. Each provider gets paid on the # of views,etc. So we pay content providers and draw in users with the quality videos and pics. TMZ has really slowed in quality of their pics and images, this is a great niche to take advantage of - since the # of page views and repeat visitors would be huge. bUIld iT AnD thEy wILl CoME!

I thought of this idea when I was...

TMZ sucking BAD lately - with poor content, craps pics and videos, would be great to have a user built content site/community instead.
