#idea: what if there was a tiny stardized sticker that listed the brand and color of the #paint used to paint walls, etc. Then the sticker was always put on the bottom corner of the painted wall. A clear 1cm sticker with small text. That's it.

There has got to be a better jar shape for natural peanut butter. It almost impossible to stir to the bottom. Maybe a container the shape of cream cheese?

#idea, a way to improve #academic integrity in #research results. In order to publish a paper in a specific journal, a university departments, would be required to reproduce/check another universities paper. For example.
The journal Z would require, for every original N papers published by University's dept of Y. A paper must be submitted rechecking the results of an already published.

This would increase academic greatly integrity, reducing erroneous research results.

An #idea for #southamerica, #CentralAmerica, #mexico to deal with their #drugcartel, #Gangviolence problem. Create a solely international crime fighting department. Maybe #interpol. This will avoid corruption problems, retaliation against families. Many countries world wide would benifit with reduction in drugs. Troubled countries of the America's would have a less crime. But I doubt this will ever happen.

For an overly simplified ideal example: Previously out of 10 people, 1 person subscribes to the Washington Post, and 2 subscribe to New York Times. But if there is an org called "News Collective". People know if they subscribe to the News Collective, they can read anything from both sites. So they are more likely to subscribe. In the example, 4 of 10 pay for News Collective subscript. Washington Post gets half the money, New York Times gets half. Overall there is more money for journalism.

So I had an #idea to help fund #journalism, and #news sites, while avoiding #paywalls, sort of. What if there was an org that many news sites belong to. Readers pay a subscription to this org, and gain access to all these sites. The org gives these subscription fees to the news sites proportional to views or original reporting. The org could also accept donations. Readers are more likely to buy a subscription if the have universal access, so ideally news sites will get more money.
