In search of something radically cool

    I'm looking for something radically cool to do with a website, or that relates to website. I'd thought of doing something like site sell it, but targeted for those looking for experience rather than a business. Unfortunately I cannot come up with a way to make it cool, or uncommon. My goal is an idea for a business that if started people would talk about. Can anybody come up with any idea that is cool, preferably radically cool that nobody has created yet? Free rep to anybody suggesting anything either plausible or radical. No criticism please.

    But if its cool and unique, why should i tell you?

    And, mind you, cool and unique is years and years of long nights alone in front of the computer.
    and then i might find it cool and unique, but once i give birth to it, I'll have to spend some more time convincing others its cool and unique.

    nobody these days seems to want to touch anything "new".
    that's the real problem behind every new idea. and there's no better place to feel that then on a board like DP.
    you commonly get the "sounds interesting. Any reviews?"

    so unless you're rich or famous, as unique or as cool as you may be, you've got a painful road ahead of you.

    but be like me - dont give up!

    I'm perfectly willing to take that. ...most any new business starts like that, regardless of if your cool & unique or not. If I start something cool & unique I at least have a chance of being noticed amongst the 500+ ads we see a day.

    You didn't offer any monitary reward for ideas that panned out. Not critisizing, just remember that others want to make money here as well.

    I've seen a lot of really cool ideas suggested in passing. True I may not be offering financial incentives, (I'll add to your rep!) but the 30 seconds to make a suggestion has to be followed by 30+ hours of business planning to make it a plausible complete idea.
