Good Morning Freedom Lovers!

Just back from linux.conf.au 2007 and first week of working at Canonical, makers of fine software. Working on Bazaar / Launchpad integration, which promises to be a lot of fun.

Two crazy ideas I had while in Sydney. I'm posting them here because I think they are worth discussing and there's pretty much no other way I can act on them.

1. A Google Maps-style app which showed real estate / rental prices as contours / altitudes / colour.

2. A OLPC application designed to let children make up their own games with their own rules and play those games with other OLPC-laptop owners. No clue how to do this.

What do you think?
