Website Ideas
Webmaster Gnomely's Journal Entry:
The
No Good, Terrible, Very Bad
Idea
What are bad website ideas?
From passage 4789.12
of
capturing and nurturing "The Idea" . . .
(Excerpt
from the basic tenets of
"Gnomology", the highly revered book detailing the philosophical and
psychological perspectives of the legendary ancient race of
earth-dwelling Cyber Gnomes.)
Bad ideas are
nothing.
Nothing at all.
And we all know that having
nothing will get you absolutely nothing in return. And when you have
nothing you'll end up with nothing, nada, zippo. . .
With nothing you
have nowhere to go and nothing to do.
Now that is the epitome of a bad
idea!
That's a very, very bad idea!
It's the worst idea ever.
It's
a no
good, terrible, very bad idea. . .
Do you get the idea here
yet?
I sure
hope so because my head is starting to hurt and the stuffing is
starting to leak out from under by most handsome pointy red cap.
Let me
help clarify the importance of an idea, any idea.
(It
is one of the basic tenets in the book
of "Gnomology", the highly
revered treatise detailing the philosophical and psychological
perspectives
of the legendary ancient race of earth-dwelling Cyber Gnomes.)
Don't worry if you aren't familiar with it.
I'll tell you everything
you need to know. . .
The "Gnomology of
Thought"
isn't as well known
among humans as it is among Gnomes.
I will happily share one of the
important passages on thought from this highly revered book with you.
"The Idea".
How do you get website ideas?
You go catch them of
course!
(Although I've heard rumors that some humans
give birth to their ideas.
. . how icky!)
A word of warning:
Ideas can be very tricky to catch
sometimes. You see, ideas can be quite stubborn. They can bury
themselves and hide in the deepest chasms of your mind; they can be
fleeting, elusive, insubstantial whispers that dart around teasingly
begging you to give them notice just to slip away before you can quite
grasp it; or they can be lost in a big messy, writhing mass of a
million thoughts just waiting for you to uncover "the right one" for
you!
So what do you do if that happens to you?
Put on your ever so darling red pointy thinking hat (You are welcome to
borrow mine if you can't find yours!) then enlist your brain cells to
join in on your search and discovery mission.
Here's
how:
- Start thinking.
- Think hard until you are on the verge of a
brainstorm.
- Then leap into
the brainstorm with all your powers of thought.
- Think of an idea.
- Any
idea.
- Any idea at all
Next.
. .
Capture your website ideas.
Secure
them properly by wrapping them up tightly in writing. That way they
will never get lost. Then, and only then, will you be able to set them
free. (You did know that your idea has the potential to set you free
didn't you?)
You see, any idea is better than no
idea.
With an idea you
have something. Even a half-baked idea is a start. I've even been known
to put my website ideas on the back burner to percolate a bit more but
be sure you don't turn them into toast. I can attest to the fact that
burnout can be paralyzing.
I keep all my
most precious website ideas safely tucked away on scraps of paper. An
idea is your e-ticket to webmaster cyber eheaven. (With the "e"
standing
for entrepreneur,
ecommerce,
ebusiness
and of course, earnings.)
How do you turn an idea
into
an e-ticket?
You simply sort out all those ideas and cash in the best ones for your
e-ticket. You use the e-ticket to capitalize on the very best ideas.
Your idea is what will get you going. Your idea is your springboard for
your site concept. Your idea allows you to give birth (not the icky
kind mind you) to your new and exciting edventure which
will lead you
to your ebusiness.
It all starts with your business website ideas.
Did
you know that Gnomes just love
to inspire edventures?
I bring my business website ideas along with me
everywhere I go. They keep me entertained with exciting new
possibilities. They provide me with new opportunities. They help me
launch a brainstorm for a whole new set of website ideas.
There.
Is
that all perfectly clear now?
Here, let me put it into a nutshell it
for you so you can keep it safe:
- Go on an idea hunt
- Capture your Idea
- Cash it into an e-ticket
- Go on an edventure
- Build your ebusiness
(By
the way, why do humans like to sum up things and put them
into a nutshell? What's up with that?)
The morale of the concept of "The Idea" from the ever
important passage form the Gnomology
of Thought is. . .
Don't let
yourself get stuck without any website ideas
because that is a. . .
No Good, Terrible, Very Bad Idea.
The solution?
It's actually quite simple:
