As a follow up to my post on LinkedIn, I have an idea for a cool Facebook Application. You select two or more of your friends that don’t know each other and dump them into a shopping cart of some sort. You’ll write info about how they will be relevant/useful to each other, and hit submit. All of the selected friends will get an email “introducing” them to the others, and they’ll see your little blurb about why they’ve been introduced.
We could call it “indirect friend requests.”
What do you think? This could be useful if you’re putting someone in touch with a contact a company to which they are applying, or if I’m interested in Latvian Folk Music and you happen to have a Latvian friend, etc.

I guess the guy who made this sandwich either did a really crappy job, or stumbled upon a new type of sandwich. Or both. They say that one man’s garbage is another man’s treasure. That must apply to ideas as well, accidental or not.
I wonder what other ideas have been accidents due to carelessness turned into something that sold really well.
