Technology wishlist


  1. Fully Integrated Google. All Google Apps and Google Cloud Offerings worked together seemlessly.  I built a solution to make configuration data in Google Spreadsheets feed into app engine.  I hired a programmer to modify a existing third party python library to pull data from G Sheets.  How is this lib not already published by Google directly?
  2. plate@car.gov All car license plates had an email address, so people could warn you before the tow truck, if you parked the car in a bad place. If you’re license is ABH-2342 then your email alias would be ABH-2342@car.gov.  And everyone would just know that.
  3. Public problem app.  I wish there was an app to report problems and crimes to relevant government agencies.  It would include some automatic reporting, e.g. your phone automatically reports a pothole when you hit one while driving.  The driver won’t need to pull over and manually report.  The smartphone would just know that a sudden jolt along a road means pothole and report it.  
  4. Kidnap app. I wish there was a facial recognition app to that was connected to a database of known missing persons so if people saw something suspicious they could sneak a pic and check if the child was known missing.  
  5. Financial Social Network.  I wish there was a social network dedicated to helping friends get to $1000 of passive income a month.  Helping friends could be as simple as donations to as serious as business model consulting.  
  6. Uber for Local Farming.  Shoppers can put in app what produce / meat they want and when (today) bulk order next month and then growers can get an aggregate picture for demand and claim supply.
  7. Affordable Franchise Database.  Offer a database of small businesses that cost less than $40k and can pay for itself in one year.  Should be same or lower risk than a Subway franchise.  
  8. No Video App.  Make a proxy server or Chrome extension that blocks videos from autoplaying or downloading when it detects that I’m connected from an LTE network or some other network that has a quota.  
  9. Affirmations App.  Make an app that contains phrases in two languages that you want to speak over your life.  Get something positive in your brain while also learning a new language.  
  10. Make service hostable on Google App Engine  where any Google Doc or Google Sheet can be served as a page and have css applied to it and maybe some extra javascript applied.  GWebDrive.

Brazil is Cool and I want in on the Action

Many have asked and many times I have explained Why Brazil? I am going to Brazil because something is going on down there, and I want in on it. Spiritually there is a huge revival going on down there. Small groups explode into megachurches. People receive prophecy and obey to go on and do great things for God. And more missionaries hail from Brazil than any other country in the world. Here's a few stories that inspired me: One prayer team from Brazil instigated a revival in Goa, India. Stephen Baldwin becomes a Christian because a Brazilian nanny obeyed prophecy. A Brazilian Missionary defies 'The Prince of Peru' to instigate revival in Peru. I believe that when I get down there I'll find mentors to take me into more powerful prayer, into more effective evangelism, and more mission-oriented churches. Essentially my hope for Brazil is that I can find a community who will help me take my faith from applying the wisdom of the Bible to something more personal ......
