Cool

Web Sites That Do Not Exist... Yet

WTF Overload - Posting pictures of the cutest programming screwups from all over the world.
SlashDigg - An automated, user-recommended, real-time distributed denial of service attack.
PunditSpace - The place for teenage political commentators to expand their social networks.
Blogr - It's a blogging system - only now you can draw boxes around parts of people's posts and leave pointless one-word comments in them.
IRDB - The internet rack database. Know you've seen a particular pair before, but can't remember where? This site has it all, including an innovative 3D indexing system.

1 It would be almost worth setting up an actual website for some of those suggestions.

2 A few years ago someone actually tried to do something like what you called "Blogr". It was a browser plugin which accessed a database on a central server. You could add comments to a web site, and anyone else using the browser plugin could see them. And the actual site owner couldn't do a damned thing about it.

As to IRDB, I bet there actually is something like that out there...

5 So IRDB would have pictures of the 19" frameworks full of servers at my ISP?
