MenuCard.org

Web Application, Flickr, Adventurous

Idea:
Collect take-away menus from restaurants nearby your house and workplace. Create a searchable web application with scanned images of these menu cards. Add additional data to these images viz. area, phone-nos, whether it does a free-home-delivery. One can ask volunteers to submit menucards. And soon this web app will have a host of loyal visitors. One can earn from the obvious advertising model, as well as can strike 10% off deals with the restaurant owners.

Alternative Model:
If one doesn't want to build an application or use some CMS than, one can easily upload these images to filckr and tag them appropriately.

Inspiration:
We already have a collection of scanned images of menucards of restaurants/ice-cream parlors nearby work area. And I usually see HR personals easily striking 10% off deals with them.

Props:
Business-card size cards with "Have A Nice Day" written on it.
A friend with HandyCam.

Idea:
Just stand outside any railway station/public place and hand out these cards to passerbys'. Record their reaction. Pat yourself on completing a live-fun act.

Inspiration:
Every day there are many people standing outside railway station handing out cards to sex/piles clinics, passerbys generally throw these cards after having a look. But this time we will catch them by surprise. It will be interesting to observe their reactions.
