So you guys and gals consider yourselves inventors, eh? I challenge you to create the world’s best shindogu. Don’t know what that means… A shindogu is a useless invention. Google it. Sometimes it’s spelled chindogu. Anybody have any good shindogu? http://www.edisonnation.com/profile/catdogfan?forced_view_option=P

Shure, How about “Missing Jigsaw Puzzle Pieces”. A small bag of miscellaneous jigsaw puzzle pieces to solve the never-ending problem of that one hole that appears in almost every completed puzzle. “Not guaranteed to match your particular puzzle”. These pieces are actually missing because they are no longer with their original puzzle. |

I like the “Pet Air” concept Mark. You could travel the world, capturing elusive air from all over the place. You could have a collection – Barcelona, Sydney, New York, Hong Kong, Moscow. It would make a pretty cool collection. Believe it or not, I’ve actually thought about that when drinking beer that was bottled overseas -it’s kind of exciting. Maybe I’m just looking for an excuse to travel… |

The travel sounds like fun Matt, but you’d have to charge a lot for the air. Also, will you have any trouble at customs? |

Maybe you should make it more of a pen pal program. You could build a Web site that matches people up. You want some air from Sydney? Some bloke from Sydney wants air from Scranton… You match them up and they capture the air in the wild and exchange canisters via post office… This is turning into an empire… |

I like it! You need to sell labels, maybe personalized. That way you know where and maybe who caught the air. |

How about an edible baby bib? When feeding time is over, he downs the bib and cleanup is over! |

Years ago there was an ad in the back of PopSci for the “hor-ver”—an outlet adapter that enabled you to rotate an electric plug 90* into an outlet. I kept the ad it because it was such a stupid invention. Now, with wall warts that eat up so much power strip space, it seems like a good idea—HEY—new invention idea—a power strip with outlets that rotate 90* :o |
