Tell HN: I would pay for that..

21 点作者 weakwire将近 12 年前
Have you ever said "I would pay for that" ? If so share it here. You never know in 2-4 months a startup can do that and you can pay for it at last :)

&quot;Drawer Liners for Men&quot; - tumble dryer sheets suggest that you place them in drawers of clothes to give the clothes a nice fresh smell. That&#x27;s a good idea, except all the tumble dryer sheets I&#x27;ve tried smell a bit horrible. I want something like that (doesn&#x27;t need to be a tumble dryer sheet) but which has manly scents. I don&#x27;t mean <i>Woodsmoke and Whiskey</i>, but maybe some kind of sandal wood or cedar wood or somesuch.<p>&quot;Aircon will stop working if you open the windows&quot; stickers. Or, if I&#x27;m grumpy &quot;Close the fucking windows if you want the aircon to work&quot;. - I see many people who open windows instead of waiting for the aircon to start working.<p>&quot;A Better, Nicer Wikipedia&quot; - WP is great. Except, it&#x27;s full of crud and some of it is thoroughly toxic. The meta stuff is bizarre and hateful. Pick an arbitrary limit (10,000? 100,000 most important articles? The 10 MB most important articles?) and fork those off. Pay experts to review the articles, and pay writers to re-write them. Make sure every article has an introductory sentence that defines the topic, or at least gives it enough context for people to know what it is. I&#x27;d pay to be part of that community. I&#x27;d pay to subscribe to downloads of it, updated every month.<p>&quot;Price Comparison Website for UK Broadband that Compares Total Cost of Ownership&quot; - the UK has a bunch of price comparison websites. Unfortunately, for broadband, they only compare the bullshit offers that broadband providers offer. I&#x27;d pay for a website that compares that actual cost of each provider over the time of the contract. With maybe some margins each side, to allow for comparison over different contract lengths. As an example: (<a href="http://www.uswitch.com/broadband/packages/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.uswitch.com&#x2F;broadband&#x2F;packages&#x2F;</a>) Virgin Media is shown as being 18 months, at £4 per month. But it&#x27;s actually £4 for 8 months, and then £14.50 per month, which is bad enough, but you also need to get Virgin Media phone for £14.99 per month.

A new calendar visualization desktop app or browser extension that will pull your calendar API (i.e. Google Calendar) and show it in a different way that makes sense for those of us who use the Calendar to track tasks and personal stuff in one screen.<p>It came to me when I saw what instagantt.com does for asana.com<p>What I miss is:<p>- a nice overview of the month without restrictions, I may want to see the next half-day, 2 days, 3 days, or tasks between 10.00 - 12.00 only...etc.<p>- a clear view of each day&#x27;s tasks &amp; meetings regardless how many they are, with more rich information about each task&#x2F;meeting

I want a good late night map app. I want to know what&#x27;s open at the current time, where I can find a bathroom after the bars close, which gas stations are 24 hours, where there is a 24 hour drivethru, etc. Other related things would be good, like letting me know if parking in a certain place will require me to move my car for street sweeping before midnight.<p>Data could be crowd sourced, as well as gotten from location check-ins.<p>Call it InsomniMaps or something. I would pay for that.

Every day I have a list of ~500k images hosted on CraigsList that I want copied to Amazon S3. Once a day my service would send IWouldPayForThat the list of urls, and IWouldPayForThat would download then upload all of the images to my S3 bucket as well as delete the images from the day before. If CraigsList banned the IP range used by IWouldPayForThat, moving to a new IP would not be a problem thus continuous service could be counted upon.<p>I would pay $40&#x2F;day for that.

An organic, non-toxic solid ball that I can put down a drain&#x2F;garbage disposal. The ball would then dissolve and eliminate odors in the sink&#x2F;drain.

When I write an article,<p>1. I write it in Microsoft Word 2. Copy into notepad to strip away the formatting an extra mark-up that comes with word 3. Paste into word-press and re-format the article before publishing.<p>I would pay for an app that will allow me do draft my article and format it, then just copy directly into wordpress and publish the article without having to reformat it in wordpress.

I have a webapp that suffers from the chicken and the egg problem, people may not know they need it until they discover what it does. I know it&#x27;s a bit off topic, but I would like to know if anyone &#x27;would pay for that&#x27; ... the webapp is <a href="http://www.organizemysearch.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.organizemysearch.com</a>

Web mail hosted in a relatively &quot;safe&quot; European country (privacy laws vary a lot in Europe).<p>Also, a web-based calendar.

One backup solution that &#x27;just works&#x27;. Maybe the technology doesn&#x27;t yet exist or is not just being applied correctly. I must be fast, easily expandable, easily accessed, secure, future proof.<p>Also a storage company which follows &#x27;moores law&#x27;, ie like a dropbox that automatically expands your storage size as time goes by.

1) API for classifying article into topics, or alternatively extracting the entities from a piece of text. Basically NLP as a service.<p>2) Twitter automation: Sort of like IFTTT. Let me specify rules on when to automatically retweet an user.

I&#x27;d pay for a saas to manage all my (similar) iphone apps from one central location. Something that would replace the things I currently do with a plist file on my server.

I would pay for anything that saves money for me and my company. More corporate solutions in various industries would do the trick.
