    Ideas

    All too often, I have ideas which might make a cool website or iPhone app or whatever and I know I just don't have the time to build them. I'm going to post them here in the hope that someone else might find a use for them. These ideas might already be in existence, of course. I'm not claiming they are unique in any way (although some might be).

    You are free to take these ideas and do whatever you like with them. Of course, if they become amazingly successful, I could do with a bigger TV...

    If you wake up every morning and think, "My t-shirts are so dull, I wish I had interesting clothes...", you need to have a look at my online shop.

    A bit too social?

    I've been looking at adding some more features to the greatest PHP CMS around and decided that simple social bookmarking doohickeys would be useful. The idea is to have a little panel in the admin area where you can check which ones you want listed on your page. Straightforward enough so far, right? Nothing groundbreaking or difficult or anything.

    It got tricky when I started trying to figure out what sites should be included. It turns out that while I wasn't looking, social bookmarking sites became quite popular. Full points go anyone who can name them all.
