TweetHave you ever worked somewhere that some employees are sitting around, surfing the web, and not being productive? They obviously have too much time on their hands and likely should be fired if they suck, because they are likely bringing the entire organization down on productivity (“if she isn’t working and doesn’t care, why do [...]

Social Good Startup Idea #133: Kickstarter for Neighborhood Initiatives
TweetThis is a simple idea really, although probably could use its’ own website to help facilitate/coordinate. What about using Kickstarter (which is a website for crowd-funding ideas) and utilize it for neighborhood initiatives, such as painting a house, fixing someone’s roof, etc. Essentially helping thy neighbor. This could simply be that one person leads the [...]
App Startup Idea #132: Parking App (using Twilio API)
TweetThis was written specific to City of Buffalo, NY, but really this should be built for any city. Here’s my idea, it’s yours, please go execute and build it! We need a mobile parking app that allows you to see if you can park in that spot, or on that side of the street, and [...]
App Startup Idea #131 (w/mockups!): Life Win/Lose Percentage playing Games (aka Broughten)
TweetThis is my buddy Aaron’s idea originally (@lloydxmas). I’m sharing because he and I would like someone to create this. I spent a bit of time exploring this idea. You’ll see my mockups below. The gist of the idea is that people currently have no way of tracking our life’s win/lose percentage in games. I [...]

Startup Idea #130: Screencast System For Contractors
TweetODesk is a huge marketplace of developers, designers and other contractors globally. When you hire someone on there, they have software that screencaptures the contractor’s screen while they work. So if you’re paying $20/hour, you see that hour of the programmer actually working and not dilly dallying. It’s not perfect by any means, the programmer [...]
Startup Idea #129: What are you working on?
TweetThe other day I met with a buddy that runs a photobooth rental company. After the meeting, I sent some introduction emails to him and others I know that he should know. It got me thinking, helping others is great — it’s human for us to want to help others. I know we have Twitter [...]
Startup Idea #128: The Graffiti Wall
TweetRemember being younger and writing all over stuff? Benches in the locker room at school, walls in stalls, etc. “Dave loves Michelle 6/8/10″, and drawings of random things. Remember the Million Dollar Homepage? A limited amount of space for sale at $1 per pixel, 1mm pixels. Why isn’t there a big graffiti wall on the [...]
Startup Idea #127: Spotted
TweetSimple idea, iOS app, I’d charge $0.99. App has one button “spotted” that you press when you see a cop. Fuzz Alert app exists and appears to be similar. Push or audio notifications when you are near an area with a recent spot, or a typical area of spots. When a notification happens, it asks [...]
IDEA #126: Marketplace for Doing Good
TweetCongrats to Matt Galligan (@mg) and Shervin Pishevar (@shervin) on their launch of 1% Of Nothing (@1percentof) , an initiative for startups to allocate 1% of equity to a non-profit of their choice, which isn’t used unless an acquisition occurs. Thus the non-profit is also pulling for your startup to be a success! Part of [...]
