Idea, idea, idea… Now repeat 59 times. Voilà! 59 ideas!
Saw this on TV today and I think it’s a great idea. Naturally I did a search and found it.
Can you figure it out?
Very simply the vest has some solar panels on the back. As you walk around, they charge your gadgets - mobile phone, ipod, digital camera, PDA.
Very handy for the road warrior. Wonder if this works well. Would be great if it charges my notebook as well.
2 days ago I mentioned about how web applications like GMail, 30Boxes, Meebo can save some RAM on the computer and are replacing desktop applications.
Of course saving RAM is not the only motivation for web application. No install required and up-to-date software are very attractive factors.

Web applications had moved beyond the yester-year hype of browser based thin-client and became practical usable solutions.
A major drawback is the need to be online in order to use the applications. I want to read my email and update my calendar anytime.
RAM saving alone is not the deciding factor.

I had been thinking about this for a while.
What would bloggers like to outsource? Especially fulltime bloggers. I know I like to get things like graphic design, template maintenance, blog application update outsourced.
The idea is not exactly new. Freelancers exists way before the Internet made international freelancing possible.
Freelance site like elance, guru.com brings together buyers and sellers of services. A way for blogger to outsource is to use these services.
Finding the right people with the right skill set is a big problem. Some either know this but not that, Another know that but not this.
I had used freelancers from such site on many occassions but so far I have met non that I would recommend without second thought.
Two years in China had gained me some experience in getting people and getting work done here. I had been toying with the idea of build my own team of people to do my online work. I did similar thing a year back but that did not turn out well. Now I believe I’m in a better position to try again.
I getting some ground work done at the moment to take care of my needs. When I’m ready I might just offer this as a service.
Will anyone be interested in this?
What service would you like to see?
