Have you ever had a brilliant design idea? Or invented something in your mind you never had made?

Asked by JessicaisinLove (1451points) December 14th, 2009

Do you have ideas that would simplify life or make it better in some way? Why didn’t you move forward with your idea to make it a reality?

Like I’m going to tell everyone!

Sometimes you need money in order to do it. Thinking is great, but it can not always be done in reality.

Wireless electricity would make this a cordless world. This has probably been thought about by anyone who has a lot of electronics and there was recently an article about how we’re moving foward with the technology to make this possible.

I wanted to have kind of a plastic “glove” to put on a motorcycle’s gastank for fillups. It would have slipped slighty into the place where you fill it (the word is eluding me), with about 4 inches surrounding it covering the tank itself. It would have been disposable and something you can keep in your pocket or saddlebags. Pull one out, put it on, gas up, toss the “glove,” and ride off without having had to clean the gas off of your tank.

I really hate the drips on my gas tank with many fillups. I am pretty good at avoiding them but it happens much more than I like.

Why I did not move forward with it?

I am lazy.

A lot of people have said it is a great idea but, well, let someone else do it.

I have an idea that has to do with helping people that need mobility gain it easier.I was just talking about this with someone the other day that could make it a reality.I still need to work it all out :)

@azlotto That is awesome!

@Ranimi23 – That is very true helps to have the $$. I met a guy once who had a recipe for BBQ sauce. A large co would cook it and bottle it for him and send it to his house.
He would label the bottles and ship them from there. He’s probably in a large facility now
based on the amount of orders he had at that time. I had no idea something like that could be done.

@Arisztid – I like that idea a lot.

JessicaisinLove's avatar

@azlotto – great idea or even one that would detect anything else that might end up flying into your legs.

@lucillelucillelucille – wow now that would be a help to a lot of people.
@erichw1504 – that thing looks dangerous. lol

I invented a time travel machine but forgot to build it :’(

If only I had a time travel machine to go back in time so I could make one :)

erichw1504's avatar

@pjanaway Me too! I am actually from the year 2048. When I used it, I didn’t think ahead and realize that when I traveled to the year 2009 I would have no way of getting back.

Wireless Earphones/Headphones.
I always find the wire annoying and i listen to my iPod when i sleep so when i move around on the bed it sometimes gets plugged out of the iPod or out of my ears, i’d be able to move better with no wire… __
