Later.com Development

I was impressed by all the excellent development ideas that members came up with on the Jackass.com thread.

What sort of ideas do you have for Later.com.? One idea I had was a payday loan company.

A bill paying site for deadbeats??

Maybe a layaway plan, where people can buy something over time?

Or, something on retirement, one's Golden Years?

Free email reminder site... people enter in specific messages that they would like emailed to themselves "Later" e.g.

ON: December 23, 2002
MESSAGE: Buy birthday present for wife

If you implement a graphical "check" like for instance on MarketLeap, you prevent the system being used by spammers and if you limit the length of messages to 256 characters (e.g.) it can still be useful without being too much of a drain on server resources...

Perhaps daily/weekly horoscope?

I think I could be king of that.

check out this "Freelancing Later in Life" site:

More and more old people who lost their retirements are going to need to do some freelancing on the side, "later" in life...
