Silent Dental Drill Printer Friendly Version
I was in the dentist office the other day, and the sound of the drill in an adjecent room makes me badly tense. There must be a mechanical person out there who can redesign that tool to reduce that horrible sound. Or maybe use an electronic noise cancelation system to achieve same end result.
Reward: less anxiety in the dentist's office

Buy & Sell Waiting Time Printer Friendly Version
Time is money, but for different individuals it has a different value. Bill Gates for example (or a busy manager) will lose hundreds of dollars in the doctor's waiting room or while he is standing in a long queue at the supermarket, while a student's time is much cheaper.
My idea is that you should be able to buy / sell your waiting time. If you're in a hurry and don't want to lose valuable time, you should be able to buy time in situations that would otherwise be time-consuming. Selling their time would also be an interesting source of income for people who are not so well off.
Of course, some (central) agency would probably have to coordinate this.
Reward: A certain amount of free bonus time at my disposal.

Double V shape TV screen Printer Friendly Version
How about a two sided TV screen, shaped like a letter V? It would be two TV's joined to move into separate directions. It would allow two people in same room to watch different TV programs. There would be separate remotes and possibly speakers inside remote like in hospitals ... or even simple headphone speakers. Couples would not have to have TV's in separate rooms any more.
Reward: a set for us.....
