idea: Facebook of the future

what if Facebook develops technology that allows people to share their pictures with aliens, i.e. by encoding images into radiowaves and blasting them into outer space? (with embedded 'like' button of course)

inspired by this article: http://www.thecreatorsproject.com/de/blog/werner-herzog-and-trevor-paglen-discuss-blasting-art-into-space-to-amuse-aliens

Idea: Write the future.

A small widget app that FBook users can install. It appears on the screen every few days, displays some random headline and asks if it’s likely to happen in the nearest future or not.

Second option offers to write your own headline and set the time when it’s likely to happen.



Bild-future-headlines.de would display statistical data of people votes as well as the entire archive with user generated headlines.



Users also have an option to vote for the most popular future headline.

Bild Newspaper would offer a reward, for example a bit of cash, to anyone who correctly predicts the future or picks the right headline.

Headlines can also be posted via Twitter.

Imagine you have an opportunity to find yourself surrounded by complete strangers and see how they interact, their interests… and maybe if you like someone you can invite them into your own circle of friends!

i.e. You have 150 friends. For 1 day your list can be swapped for 150 random strangers. If you have only 30 friends, you get 30 strangers.

This idea probably needs to be done with cooperation of Facebook, which is most likely because this project promotes more connectivity within the social network.

Idea: FB Fantasy Friends

Why not develop a widget that would allow to create personal fantasy friends list? Or people you really admire and wish to become friends with?

Here's my personal FFB list:

United by trivia.

i don't know, maybe it's just me.. but after spending some time out of the system you come back to civilization and look at things afresh... and you see rather psychotic stuff....here's what i mean:


Is the community really obsessed with such trivial bonding ...or is it some kind of conspiracy? )

A healthier option, perhaps:
