I need an idea for...

[george]

...a new business.


What is the world lacking in? (that can be bought on the interweb and can be posted (cheaply), and is not fragile, and not a magnet for fraudulent abuse).


Let the sillyness begin...


(and for the record, I'm being serious with my initial request)

A way to look through a forum and perhaps find an answer to a question that has been asked many times in that forum...you could call it a 'Search' facility or something, maybe a bit pie in the sky though....

Feathers.

There's dozens of types, various sizes and loads of colours, many uses - from plumes on horses to ladies' fascinators. Carnivals, weddings, dancing girls.

Requires some investment in stock holding, storage bins, stock control, sales and marketing.

Email me for trade suppliers.

Obviously not football memorabilia then....Viagra perhaps?

Whatever it is, it's got to interest you imo, there's no point dong it otherwise. Niche markets are easier for SEO, and if you're interested in the product it's simpler to become an authority site. But you know this already....

Good luck, and when you find the answer, be sure to tell us so we can all compete with you!

and can be posted (cheaply)

Off topic, but there was a guy in our local PO trying to post his mail-order product:
- tyres
- yes, car tyres
- and in pairs

The PO manager was not best pleased and suggested he should be looking at couriers (as they rolled the packaged tyres out to the van).

How about a sticker that says "I'm a banker - kick me!"

George - let me know if you ever find out - been something I been searching for for ages - happy to go 50/50 with you if you ever find it!

a new utility that allows us to search google (and the like) but to totaly remove all those other stupid search engines that claim to offer a good search

if we could get rid of those stupid websites, then the results returned from google would actually start to mean somethig again,

how many times have we clicked on a good looking link, only to find its yet another harvester

Set up a bank and get a big handout from Gordon

[chris ashdown]

How about mens Tie's, or I can get you loads of Great yarmouth Bloaters (kippers but not split open) wrap them in old comics and eat while you read
