The one I am currently working on is Personal Knowledge Management.  Think
all the URLs, files, photos, events,PIM-ish things and pretty much anything
you care to remember.  Anything you want to wrap a type with properties
around as well.  All tagged however you like and with arbitrary dynamic
relationships between them.  Toss in location and time of entry automatic
associations.   Easy to remember information, tag and associate it  and
easy to find information and browse linkages you may not even have been
aware existed.  Basically and extended associative memory fused with more
or less object database abilities  available from mobile devices, computers
and on the web with transparent synchronization.

Phase #1 is strictily personal - your stuff only.  Phase #2 will add more
social and group knowledge maps and being able to share sub-maps.  Phase #3
adds opt-in data mining and automated agents to seek new relevant
information from the web automatically and process gathered knowledge to
date in various to be defined ways.   Part of phase #2 may include things
like automatic group member notifications or updates of online groups with
relevant entries from any of the members with strict user permission of
what parts of their knowledge map can be shared with whom.

Moving slow moonlighting the webapp version and building out the back end.
