Are you an entrepreneur looking for new business ideas? Work.com is full of new business ideas for and from entrepreneurs: have you considered starting a gardening business, a pool hall, a community art gallery, throwing up a few t-shirts on CafePress, selling handmade items, or starting a vending-cart business?
Springwise also has some great business ideas, such as facilitating fractional ownership of luxury pleasures for "transumers", who are consumers driven by experiences instead of possessions. See Bag Borrow or Steal for an example, or study the massclusivity trend...
The massclusivity idea is interesting, but isn't it really just quality customer service packaged in different semantics? Haven't businesses and entrepreneurs always looked for ways to differentiate their products and services?

Hi Paul,
My understanding of the massclusivity trend is that it is about "exclusivity for the masses" - making the consumer feel like part of an elite with a product or service that confers respect and privilege.
