Around these parts "ideas are cheap" is often repeated, but I've failed to come up with a marketable idea for the past ten or so years.

My hobbies & interests are too niche and the problems I have in life can't be solved by tech, so I have yet to run across an idea I'd be intrinsically-motivated enough to pursue.

With that being said, I'm hoping I'll run into someone else's idea which will help me see through the kind of blindness which prevented rsync users from seeing Dropbox as something worth building, so I find exposure to these "little" ideas useful since reading through threads like these is somewhat like speed-dating for startup ideas.
