[edit] LDR Apps
- App where people can send delayed blog posts to each other. Set the time until the other person can see it, but write it about today.
- 1000 questions app. Can't see the other person's answer to the question until you've written an answer. All users can submit questions. They can be public questions or specific to your relationship and not public.
[edit] Easy project task management
This would probably be a hosted solution. Software as a service (SAAS).
- Like http://basecamphq.com/ or Project Pier
- Requirements
- Allow multiple users to be responsible for a task
- Every task has a date (or optionally a date range)
- Show calendar
- Tasks can be part of a project
- They can either be isolated in the project or part of the overall todo list
- Tasks must be in a category
- files can be attached
- You can more which tasks are compeleted and it updates over AJAX
- Export to iCal
- Ability to view tasks that have been completed
[edit] GovTrack for state government
[edit] Twitter Direct Admin
- Let's you set up an account for a project. AwesomeCon (awesome conference) for example. If you're on the approved list, you can direct message AwesomeCon with something and it will be tweeted on the acocunts feed.
- This lets multiple people administer!
- Also lets you administer from your phone that is configured to work with your personal account.
[edit] Activist Social Networking Site
- Have profiles, but the focus would be on the campaigns and organizations
- You could drag and drop campaign elements and build a campaign that way.
- Example: Using twitter to create a mobile loop for your supporters
- Popular "campaign elements" would show up higher on a list
- Very strong facebook app element to the whole thing to allow non-registered people to get a good experience through that side of things
[edit] WordPress Mediawiki integration
Based on the append mediawiki plugin (conceptually).
Would create http://example.com/wiki/Main_page. It would use RSS or the print version of pages to pull down the main content of the page (independent of the theme) and render it inside your wordpress blog. It would change all links to be relative to your blog URL. It would include edit urls (with the option of editing inside your blog or outside it!). It's all kind of a hack, but get's the job done!
- Add filter to get_content() part of WP. If the directory is /wiki/ then just append the proper page.
- Add hook on the 404 page before the page actually gets displayed. Display wiki page if it meets the conditions. This is basically the same way htaccess files work for pretty URLs.
- Look into how the mediawiki core works. Basically get it to bootstrap itself and get the $wmSkin->data array for my own purposes inside WP.
[edit] Quotebookr
Quotebookr will be a site (and open source platform) that allows users to submit famous (or not-so-famous) quotes. They can organize these quotes together in their own "quotebooks" (QUOTE noteBOOKS). They can use quotes that already exist and add their own. They can tag quotes for easy searching. User can browse and search all quotes or within certain sets.
I started on the site. Check out the Google Code page for Quotebookr.
