That brilliant idea
I’ve been searching for the idea, that brilliant blog idea that will bring me a lot closer to success. I’ve even tried a few, but none worked as i was expecting and most of the projects got dropped in time. But there are some people that managed to find that sparkling idea. So i’ll show you the best two i saw during the last months.
First of all, the funny cat pics collection on Icanhascheezburger. Everything there is amusing, starting from the weird site name, continuing with the theme’s header and finishing of course with the personalized pictures. Cause unlike other cat pictures, these ones come with some great messages. Actually have to say that the message makes 75% of the job. But i still have to wonder where do these dudes find that pictures and how do they get those amazing message ideas.
The site is extremely successful considering it’s just an year old and you can see that from the Alexa rank and the tons of comments each post gets. That being said, people like good humour. Finding this site today made me think i should perhaps revive my old Funny site project… If only i would have the time…
The other site is a little more popular. Voted Best 2007 blog name by the readers of Performancing.com this blog used the brilliant name resemblance with the Money making Mogul John Chow to create a huge buzz on the blogosphere last summer. We’re of course takling about JohnCow.com. And it paid off, as it has lots of dedicated readers nowadays and the owner has built quite a notoriety. The funny writing style, combined with informational quality, were part of the receipt of course, but i doubt this site could have emerged so fast if it wasn’t for the name.

Brilliant blog ideas? Well, you will need to think more than what common people are thinking. Try to go against the flow and… OK, I admit I stuck but you see, sometimes you are lucky when some crazy ideas hit you.
Just keep thinking about it and observe things around you. I am sure there will be something that is not available on the blogosphere yet.
All the best, for me and you in figuring out the next big thing.
