Special:
Realsimplefurniture - Sell funiture that is easy to put together and requires absolutely no tools/screws for assembly
The Bubble Project - A man put over 50,000 speech bubble stickers around NYC commercial billbroads, letting others to writing funny commentary on it, then collect back all the works and pulish the result online.
The Ridiculous Business Jargon Dictionary - It is funny to see your senior use these words, wondering whether they really know the meaning.

An idea a day:
67. Setup a website providing interviews of HK famous CEOs.
The main purpose is not to provide contents to web visitors, the focus is to make friends with them.

People eager and willing to pay pretty much $$ for MBA, but most MBAs said the value is not in knowledge, is in the network. If there is a way for young people/graduate to bulid the relationship earlier, pay only disposable time and effort and achieve the same goal, will you deem this to be good?

Most of the CEOs are very busy with their stuffs, but when you are talking about sharing the vision, mission and value of themselves/ their companies, to youngsters/ fresh-grads/ students, they will be very willing to contribute, as they may think this is their social responsibility to do so.

If, in the course of interview, you could show your talents and wits to that CEO, at the same time, could impress him, then you will have an easy and bright future. The CEO may not give direct benefit to you, like hire you, but once get known and be friended with, it is natural for him to help you once in need, both in adversity or in prosperity, by sharing his knowledge or network with you.

If the website get popularity, it could also be a mean to provide publicity to interviewees.

Comments:

There are some CEO interviews websites, one of the most intereting is npost.com.
