Challenge to entrepreneurial physicians

Are you scratching your head for ideas to start a new or side business?

If so, here are 999 start-up ideas from Seth Godin's newly-formed SAMBA team.

There are tons of interesting ideas here and some of my favorites are:

8. A gadget to cook beans/lentils/vegetables/rice for the same amount of time (quicker than what can be done in a slow cooker.)

11. Brainstorm Consulting - Teach companies how to brainstorm

51. Earplugs that go deeper into your ears but don’t hurt them

57. Crutches that stand upright by themselves. The base would have feet that fold up or spring out so you don’t have to lay them on the ground where they get in the way and people trip over them, etc.

82. Personal lessons for using your cell phone features

360. BestOf.com [http://BestOf.com] A website that only sells one specific type of each product...but you know its the best.

739. A service where you can teach kids in developing countries/village a particular skill or trade.

840. A website that aggregates food in grocery stores that is about to expire and gives you a big discount on it. This would help to greatly reduce the millions of tons of pre-consumer food waste each year.

And if you are looking for funding for your start-up, Mark Cuban may have just what you need!
