Web 2.0 Service: Application Database

Description: Since there are countless online applications launched each day (Museum of Modern Betas), a community-ranked database of free, online Web 2.0 applications based on function.would be extremely useful. The homepage would list the most commonly used functions (Word Processing, Search, etc) with the top 5 apps listed. The algorithm would need to take in account the duration since the application was posted, software updates, and filter out all the fanboy hate.

Monetization could through ads, referrer signup links for the applications, and a business-focused application database. This idea would be extremely easy to implement (a week or two), and have little upkeep cost.

Market: The entire internet

Expansion:
- Partner with online services (also for monetization)
- License out service for Web 2.0 bloggers and tech sites
- Create social network around services
- Create fanboy tags and badges for embedding

Web 2.0 Idea: Comments Blog / Post Aggregator

Description: While there are a few services focusing on comments, none of the services feature customized comments blogs. To give an all-encompassing view of a certain persona, the original post would be included in addition to the commenter's response. Aggregated over large blog platforms, it could provide an interesting service for existing communities. Not only would it automatically generate personal "sub-blogs," but it would also provide selected blog posts from a particular viewpoint. Monetization would be traditional ads and the original posters would get a percentage of the ad profits.

From a platform view, this could be a centralized, platform which has consensual deals with major blogging platforms (blogger, wordpress, livejournal) or it could be an additional feature provided by a major blogging platform.

Market: Existing blogging communities, microblogging communities

Expansion: Aggregated, personalized blogs and public feeds
