Wiki-PEE-dia

I think I have a problem with my bladder. I often go out of my routine to take a leak every 30 minutes or so, and sometimes I’m not drinking or eating anything. In movie houses, there are times when I get the urge to pee during the most important, exciting, and significant part of the movie. It’s irritating actually, but what can I do? When my bladder talks, I’m forced to listen.  Is that normal? Do I need to seek medical help? I don’t know but that’s not the point of this entry hehe.

I just discovered the perfect solution to my pee problems, specifically the ones while watching a movie: RunPee.com. What is it? It’s a web-based service and soon-to-be mobile app that helps you enjoy your movie experience and makes sure your bladder gets the attention it needs… at the same time!

In every movie, there are scenes that you can afford to miss. These are the parts that are not very critical to the plot; thus, missing it won’t affect your understanding and appreciation of the movie very much.

RunPee.com pinpoints these scenes by giving you clues like lines and descriptions before the less significant scenes start. You will also see a ‘Pee Time Time line’ so you would know the approximate time to get out of your seat and pee. Actually, you can do anything you like with the stated time. Go buy popcorn, make a phone call, or wash your face… It’s all up to you. But of course, the bladder is boss. Right? Right? Haha

Anyone can contribute in knowing the Pee Times for the movies thus making RunPee a Wiki-PEE-dia haha! I checked out their site. They have famous movies there with Pee Times available already.

Now we see another great innovation. A simple need developed into a great business concept… this is amazing. It may sound simple at first and you may not even think there’s a business opportunity connected to such need but if you go deeper and think in a more wild and crazy manner, why not right? Why not give moviegoers the time when the less significant scenes are flashed? I always wanted to know but I never imagined that it could be answered the RunPee way.

We must therefore remember that in business, no idea is crazy and wild enough. Keep an open mind… keep a wild, crazy, and curious mind!

Personalized Virtual Gifts Sent Via Facebook

There’s a new great way to send a personalized virtual gift and it is fully integrated in Facebook. Instead of sending an e card or any of those forwarded supposed to be funny/inspirational emails, why don’t you go to Greetbeatz and have a song commissioned for your friend, loved one, enemy, or anyone you want to share a smile with. The good thing about Greetbeatz is that you can commission a basic birthday song (good for 2min) for free. Rates starts to come in when you want to commission a song for any other occasion, $9.95 for a 1:00-:30 min song, and $49.95 for a song with any length. The catch is that for the free birthday song; you can only customize a few words like the celebrator’s name and your name. As for the ones where you pay, you can customize the whole song. They have forms where you fill in the details. It’s so specific, they even ask for the pronounciation of the names you want to include in the song. They have dedicated artists who would produce your song and it takes up to 5 days max. After this, the end result appears on the recipient’s Facebook wall to be enjoyed by everyone.

Cool huh? They actually have nice songs. The birthday song I was able to hear is so cool, a lot of rap going on. It’s also a great way to make fun of someone if you think about it hehe. But of course, use it for the good. But for some laughs, yeah why not.

Oh yeah, they are also looking for artists so if you’re one, just contact them. Details can be found in their website.

Be a star! replace the star!

If you always wanted to be part of a famous movie or more so, be the star yourself, then now is your time to make it happen! Haha

Yoostar helps you do that by its technology. You basically choose a scene, set up a green screen, then go lights camera action!

It’s pretty cool and who knows what are the boundaries to your creativity. It’s not being sold yet but it will soon be. Hmmmmm… I checked out their website, you can put yourself in scenes from movies like Terminator (the first one), Rocky Balboa, and Sesame Street. Cool huh? You should check it out yourself.

People are getting more and more creative… I wonder what’s next after this. And of course, more creative ideas mean more business ideas. Isn’t it exciting? I got some myself and I can’t wait for the time to materialize these ideas of mine.

Watch out for me! :)

There are days when our creative juices are at its peak and we tend to come up with innovative/creative/wild ideas. Such ideas are sometimes solutions to problems we are currently facing, sometimes they are simply things to laugh about, and sometimes they are ideas that have the potential to make it big. These are ideas that could start a revolution because of its uniqueness and if you look at succesful companies today, they all started from this same thing… an idea… a big idea.

So what do you need to do with your idea for something big? Make it BIG. Own it, develop it, or submit it Quirky.

Quirky is a new way of developing products and is a good way to start. Basically, you go to their website and submit your idea for a certain price.

Doing this gives you the chance to have your idea materialized into something that could be used by hundreds of people. Possibilities are unlimited the same way as your idea is.

Of course, if your idea makes it big, you’ll get a cut from every dollar your product earns. Cool huh?

So there… when you wake up one day and you have an idea that has the potential to make it big, you may want to submit it to Quirky. Who knows how far can your idea reach, not to meantion how much it can earn!
