Not to hate, but these are vague ideas overall. Those are the kind that are a dime a dozen. ;)

They are pretty vague so far, I just wanted to jot down general ideas that I keep having and forgetting over time, thought itd be handy if they were online for others to try as well. It will be updated and refined pretty regularly.

What about a social network especially for people who haven't owned Apple (stock, hw and sw) and never will?

tinychat seems to let you host your own chatroom, whereas I was looking for a chat client that can connect to irc / xmpp (and possibly msn / facebook), somewhat more like meebo

I'd like to see also: a web browser, an OS, a "spreadsheet" (term I've coined, I'll explain in a follow-up post), also some sort of FPS, also some sort of markup format that's like HTML but not presentation-specific...also, I'd like a language like C but with classes. And, a pony. Thank you.

C already has classes. They're called structs. And methods are called function pointers.
