Check out the WeeMee avatar that I have created off myself. This is pretty cool!
Today there are lots of websites where you can create a virtual version of yourself, and use it as your identity on the net, for example, meez, stardoll, simpsonizeme and of course second life and WoW.
How about offering a web service allowing people to create a 3D figure out of their avatars? it can be a 3D sculpture (made with a color digital 3D printer) or a soft toy in cotton, which they can hang on their mobile phone or on their backpack, or hug at night while sleeping (they are different sizes of course). The potential is huge cos even people could offer a mini version of themselves to their girl/boyfriend for St. Valentines, or anybody could offer it as a present for their grandparents.
Here are 2 webs starting out on this niche: fabjectory and tinypocketpeople.
Create a real world version of your virtual identity and show it!
I need a little investment and contacts. If you like the idea, let me know!

Dreamboard
I hope nobody was scared after my last post. It was just a declaration of principles, like my good friend Sergi said. I though better be positive than negative because thoughts attract the like. Positive thoughts attract positive thoughts and positive minded people, so, if i gotta have somebody read my blog and eventually become friends or partners, better be a positive minded person.
A very good tool to be optimistic through the day is to use a visionboard or a dreamboard. those boards where you stick pictures of your dreams. I stick mines on the wall next to my bed, so they are the first and last thing i see on the day. Here is one of them:
There i am on "my" private jet. This is just a thought that i keep everyday and i will achieve it pretty soon (the photo is real though). for me that is the ultimate freedom: fly anywhere you want when you want. and i want to pilot it myself. There are three countries that play an important role in my life and that i want to visit often. they are Spain, Switzerland and Singapore. I have lived there, i have friends & family there and i love them. they are wonderful on their own ways.
Is good to have dreams but that is not enough. we must work hard for them, the beauty of our society is that somebody is out there ready to give us our dreams (material), but of course they expect something of higher value in exchange. thats is why, whatever business i consider, it must be something that ads value to people. if i can add 1$ worth of value to 3 million people, i will in exchange receive a 3Million dollar private jet from "those people out there willing to give me my dream".
Recently i have read the book "The science of getting rich" and watched the movies "The Secret" and "What the Bleep do we know?" All belonging to the "New thought movement". I don't fully subscribe them as hey are pseudoscience and are using scientifically biased opinions about Quantum physics to explain how our thoughts can shape the universe and produce us whatever we want. As nobody has managed to materialize a thing yet, even if they are right, i think is much easier to start a successful business. Nevertheless there are valuable lessons to learn from them, and they are: the power of your mind (to imagine and create things), improving others life's, the power of focused hard work, and gratitude for what we have already.

Like Yogi Berra famous line:
If you don't know where you're going, chances are you will end up somewhere else.
