Creating Great Ideas

Submitted by Prad Prathivi on Wednesday, 15 October 20087 Comments

After I’ve made my fortune in Second Life, I plan to take over the real world with a clever plan that involves selling advertising space on toilet rolls. Trust me.. I’m onto a winner there.

It’s often pondered how someone comes up with a good idea to sell in Second Life. Scripters often have trouble coming up with practical ideas that will get the hordes of SL residents coming to them for their amazing little gizmo.

I take a lot of concepts and ideas from the real world, adapt and manipulate them and turn them into my own ideas. It’s what works well for me, and it could easily work well for you too.

Case point: Sex sells, right? The SL sex scene is one of the biggest industries in the metaverse. Everyone likes it, and in SL, avatars are at it like bunnies crammed full of Duracell batteries.

But the SL sex market is saturated.. sex beds are everywhere, and you can have sex-menu powered sofas, hot tubs, deckchairs, saunas, toilets, radiators.. the list goes on.

So you need to target the niché market in order to carve out your slice of the huge sex market. My suggestion is to go for the people like this guy.

The story of a building contractor seducing a Henry Hoover is quite bizarre, sure. You may wonder if the guy suddenly got hit by an attack of random spontaneousity, or saw the hoover’s big eyes and long nose and thought “Mmmm.. yes please!”.

That is completely irrelevant though. What you actually have to consider is the fact that this contractor was having sex with Henry’s nose. I can’t say I’ve tried it myself, but I imagine I wouldn’t enjoy nasal sex very much. In my opinion, that makes the contractor a very selfish lover, and greed equates to profit.

So I’ll let you have that little burst of creative genius for free. I don’t even ask for a cut of your guaranteed fortune.. just spend it wisely.

Not on a real Henry hoover.

    hahahaha, omg, every time I read “What you actually have to consider is the fact that this contractor was having sex with Henry’s nose” I end up laughing again. And the sex with a bicycle, and sex with the pavement, I’ve obviously been missing out on some easy and awesome sex! I need to open my mind a bit more!! But not my nostril. Cause eeewww.

    Now how exactly does one try to have sex with a bicycle? And pavement? That takes *rug burn* to a whole new level. *shudders*
