Thoughts & ideas

If I wrote this already, let me know.
But i think it's gonna be original content.

The trouble is: my mind never sleeps, and keeps coming up with ideas of things to do, companies to create, opportunities to explore...

I'd like to list down a few here, so that I least there is a written track and I dont forget them all.

Business ideas:
1. create an software, or online application, for writing, sharing, and advertising comments/notes on e-books. it would work on any platform that can read e-book files, but would be designed for devices like the Kindle (Amazon's ebook reader)
2 website on restaurants in Paris mentionning prices of most of the dishes, price of the set lunch, and dinner, happy hours, etc etc. it already exists, but I feel there is still a market.
3 a service of Q&A by sms. something like Yahoo! Answers. but people would send their questions by sms. then volunteers receive the question, answer it directly or if they dont know the answer,direct it to a previously selected expert. volunteers are mostly students willing to give some of their time and make some pocket money.
sounds crazy to you? well at least two companies like that are working in the US,and booming so far!!
4 insurance, or travel agency, for Aiesec in France, then maybe internationally! because sometimes, when going on conferences, Aiesecers are not properly insured. or they need to pay in advance based on the number of attendees, and there is no flexibility it someone needs to cancel at the last minute.

Educational ideas:
1 start a conference cycle at my former university.
First, prepare presentations from a few books that I have read (eg:'The world is flat')
Then present it to students, and get feedback.
After that, it can either become a training session for companies, focusing on the organisational and business issues, or a learning circle at the university by getting the students to discuss whichever topic is most relevant to them. For example, waht jobs will exist in 10, 15 years, and how do we prepare for them?
2 set up a Global Village in front of Hotel de Ville, in 2010.

Personal stuff that I need to dig more
1. I like delivering trainings, facilitating sessions, helping people to develop themselves. Where can I test my interest more on that topic?
2  world tour of all existing Aiesec local chapters, and take a picture with an aiesec banner in front of each, with the whole team standing in the picture as well.

what's more, what's more?... more ideas coming almost every day!
