    How many more forum ideas do you have that you haven't had the opportunity to build yet?

    I have the opportunity (and the means) to continue on with my ideas, but admittedly, I'm too lazy to do so. At the moment, I'd say that I have about three or so new "brainstorming sessions" mulling in my mind.

    I have two more ideas.

    I have the proper resources, skills and the budget to do what I'd like, though I'm not sure if I want to do will have an outcome like I hope it will.

    :rofl:

    Nei and I were talking about it the other day.

    We think it'll be pretty cool.

    This is the problem. I have the means, energy, desire and ability to run many more websites and forums - but I'm so uncreative that I can't ever come up with any good ideas.

    That's why I'm almost always on the lookout for partner work. Combining my means with somebody else's creativity = success. :lol:

    Me and Tom thought about it and such. I am pretty sure that having a forum like that will make me hungry every second, but I a SURE it would be very fun. Domain name is the worst, nutella.com is taken by ferrero... Nutellaaddcit...Nutellastic.....Nutellaobsession....nutellateur[chocolateur].....chibinutella... :rofl:

    As silly as such an idea may sound, it's something that could actually work.

    The subject itself is unique - it's a product that many people are not even aware of. Even as this may be the case, the product does indeed have a strong following from the specific demographic that is familiar with it and does like it. If you were able to effectively promote this community to that target demographic, you'd be golden.

    I have a few ideas for domain names. Later on we can exchange ideas, for sure. :)

    I agree.

    Nei and I aren't really that money hungry, so more than likely, the site would be a non-profit one. Only revenue we'd generate is advertising, subscriptions, donations, sponsorships, etc. And, all those get reinvested in the site. So we're not even seeing the money.

    I really think it coud be a success. There are no Nutella Fan Forums on the net.

    Yes! Or well, how nutella fans would say, we would be spreadably delicious! From what I have noticed, demographically, Nutella is most known in Europe, I have friends in Italy, France and Britain who eat nutella about every hour? The concept of nutella is not only sort of exclusive [it's BARELY seen here in Puerto Rico], but it's part of Ferrero, which is an elegant chocolate brand, have to love the Ferrero Rocher.

    I LOVE their site FERRERO GROUP when you go to the site, they call nutella "An Original Idea". Seriously!! Who ever though chocolate and bread would taste so nummy!

    I think that you should take advantage of this rather unique opportunity. :)

    Lol, that's for sure!

    I have a box of Ferrero Rocher in the kitchen, waiting to be eaten.

    I hope we can get this idea from our heads to a site.

    I'm not much on partnerships but this sounds about like me for the most part.

    More Ideas popped into my head about how this site would go... Though I really want a vB for this one. Nutella deserves the best of the best!!

    Anyhow, usually I am the designer, I need people to motivate me and such and I will try to put my design on the site. I am the creative side, I just need a serious side :lol:

    I probably come up with 100 ideas a day. My mind really races at time. Some are fantasy and others would be workable. I just don't have time or attention span to work on all of them.

    If anyone is doing a Nutella forum count me in! Ok, if you don't want me in we could exchange links. Well at least let me lick the screen...

    I'd gladly join a Nutella discussion community, as well - even though I'm not that addicted to it.

    One idea I had a year ago when I purchased a associated domain was a dedicated emoticon site. I know there's plenty of dedicated emoticon sites about but they have their own style and visual side associated with the author/community.

    Infact, I've been pondering on the idea for a few days now and still debating whether I want to take on another site. Which reminds me, I'd better renew my domain soon.
