Journal: bored, where to go from here?

i've been writing desktop and web apps for about 15 years, using all sorts of MS products and js. but man, i'm bored!

i want to do so much more.

i want to build appliances to make life easier and more fun. gadgets, things that our parents and/or spouses would tell us are a waste of time but we know there's 100's of us out there that would buy it.

I'm still pissed at John M. for shooting down my (non-techie) idea of a mountain board back in 1991.

Any suggestions?
