1. Open Source 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...

    SpreadShop

    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.


  3. Some kind of code...

    Some kind of code...I found this Ema (votive tablet) in the grounds of Meiji Jingu last month. A month of playing around with various cyphers has yeilded no results. It's not a straightforward substitution code so frequency analysis doesn't work, I've tried substitutions with an increasing or decreasing offset, backwards and forwards alphabets...

    Obviously the person who wrote it wants to keep it a secret so we probably shouldn't probe further but...anybody got any ideas?
