  The ones that caught my interest were things like exposing the informal job market (always interesting to read about)& Simple File Transfer (no account) I encounter this need on a daily basis. The issue with using FT sites that already exist (sendfile etc) they tend to have a spammy feel, end up being blocked in a corporate world so offering a professional, overly secure site would possibly tap into the business market. Perhaps a business solution where they register once for the entire organisation, provide their IP range and anytime your site is accessed from their machines you allow them a secure, simple way to transfer files. This is how Yell.com allows search access to companies to their online phone directory. I think the issue with having NO users account details means you cut out a lot of avenues for monetization quickly. By aiming it at businesses you would still gain revenue but the end user would have a seamless, account free experience. I also think the home market is well covered with Dropbox and the likes where there's no restriction on what you access, sign up for etc. The other idea that I noticed was the Cleaning DVDs one. While the only phrase I understood was 'cleaning my toilet' it certainly made me smile. I think there is a small niche product to be made out of that one! Heck, I'd probably even buy one, you could market it as How to hack your housework! :)
