Heres a couple from my ideas list:

WhatIsThisSiteAbout.com - Flashes an image of a website homepage for 5 seconds and the user has to guess what the site is about. Feedback can be used to hone the site so that it makes a better impact in the future. (Someone told me that a similar site might already exist?)

iPhone Training App - An app that uses GPS to figure out how quickly you are moving and the route. It could maintain a history of your previous walks/runs and then use sound clips to motivate you (i.e. saying whether you're going good, or if you're going too slow etc)

Friday Drinks - A variation on a little app I built (http://meatinapark.appspot.com/). Shows nearby bars on a map and then you can organize Friday drinks with (facebook) friends. I could probably modify my own app. One day....

Online Mirror - A webpage that can be used as a mirror. Handy if you have a webcam but no mirror!

Hotel style room service for your own home - A cleaning service more akin to a hotel, where they restock certain items in the fridge and bathroom etc...
