998 business ideas, yours for the taking

Just to prove that you really can find anything on the internet if you just know the right place to look:

http://www.sixmonthmba.com/2009/02/999ideas.html

998 different business ideas contributed from 9 fine young business minds (well Seth Godin thought so), and heaps more in the comments, and while 789 isn’t much of a winner… there’s some awesome content in here even if it does nothing but spark your imagination and creativity.

My other favourite places to find “anything”:

• Another Seth Godin creation: www.squidoo.com – a lens on anything
www.wikipedia.org – wiki your way to untold knowledge
http://scholar.google.com/ - Google scholar, essential for those university types out there looking for references
www.threadless.com – any t-shirt (well, almost)
www.twitter.com – for any amount of ramblings
www.reallysold.com – any real estate advertising phrase (and any shameless plug for writer’s own product)
www.facebook.com – for any old friend you thought you’d never hear from again (and a few stalkers you never knew you had)
www.99designs.com – any logo designed for you in ridiculously quick time
www.kiva.org – any aspiring micro-entrepreneur in a third world country waiting for you to assist
www.etsy.com – any handmade item for you to purchase

With so much information out there – the excuse of I can’t think up a business idea, or I can’t find a creative gift, or I don’t know how to find that information really just don’t cut it anymore.
