Skimmed Steve Rubel’s MicroPersuasion just now and saw his links post which led me to the Idea Generator which you can see and play with below. I thought it was somewhat humorous and ended up with some funny results.
Just a guess, but this is probably some sort of "buzz test" to see who links to it, determine if it’s fun enough to create buzz and so forth. I say this since the Idea Generator is on a white page making it trivial for someone like me to load it in an iframe in, say, a blog post!
Here’s what I’ve learned in more than two decades of acting as idea boy for companies I’ve been with and for family and friends: ideas require a lot of input shoved into our brains that may be relevant to coming up with fresh ideas; time needs to be spent mulling over the problem(s) in order to heighten our own awareness; and then human connection needs to occur so we can riff off of one another to come up with significantly higher value ideas (the old "1+1=3" equation of brainstorming value).
Click the "shuffle arrows" and let it generate ideas for you or just rotate them by clicking on the arrows yourself and see if this sparks anything…
