I've got a photography web & iOS app idea that I've sketched out, it's currently un-named and Bluffr would fit quite well.
The app would be to bookmark GPS locations that I would like to go back and photograph some other time.
E.g I'm travelling on the train and I whiz by a cathedral, old ruin, or landscape I'd like to photograph, I can save & tag it for later. When I'm able to go out snapping next, I can find it again. Plus the locations can be shared & geofencing enabled so others can find or be alerted when they enter popular locations.
Bluff is another name for a hill/mountain so it would fit quite well with the landscape theme.
It's not quite as obvious as the poker theme but I think the name could be appropriated for this use. It's also a similar mispelling to flickr which keeps it photo related.
In terms of timescales it would be over the next 3 months. I'm currently learning iOS and I would love this to be my first web & iOS app. Obviously if anyone wanted to jump in on this project with me, then it probably could be done a lot quicker. My e-mail is in my profile.
I'd also be documenting the process. I think it would be fun to do a series of blog posts right from sketches through to launch. I think going in depth on struggles & successes could be quite interesting for HN to follow.
