No, this isn't some new spellcheck feature, but it might also be useful... If you encounter someone (some woman) in a forum such as this who seems normal one day, but bitchy the next, all you have to do is let this convenient plug-in search and filter all of that person's previous posts, and determine if there is a monthly cycle of exclamation marks, italics or profanity. If there is, you have successfully detected the relevant period, and can set the tool to ignore that user's posts...

All my friends say I can't dance, so that must be true. They say I have no rythm. Even though I feel like my rythm is perfect when I dance, they must be right.

Do you really believe everything you see on the net? Of course not, but how do you tell what's real and what isn't? Wouldn't it be great if you could just download a hoax-finder, click an icon, and get a result such as: Hoax Probability: 92%? This could be achieved by cross-referencing the site name with various sites that report or comment on such things, or just by searching for the site name together with words like hoax, fake or phony in various search engines.

Have you ever had the trouble of getting it all together to send someone a note or a thank you card? E-Mail is the answer, but if they are not connected, it takes ages to organise the card, stamp, pen, etc., and then it has to be posted. I propose an organisation that will take care of all this. They would be contacted via e-mail, and they would send the hard copy for you. Any personal messages could be cut and pasted into a card or onto a letter heading. The only problems are with...

How about setting up a website where authors that normally would never be published could publish excerpts of their work? Then, if people like it, they may pay for a downloadable version of the whole thing. Authors could set the price per copy as whatever they feel their work is worth - maybe there could be some sort of bidding system? The site could take a small percentage of sales. And on the same site, perhaps if some agents or publishers would periodically list their submission...
