I don't know if I'd pay for ideas... if I got stuck on something for an extended period of time and my friends couldn't help, then maybe. But I do have a good network of friends.

I figure it will depend on the pricing and ease of use. Would you pay $5 for 5 good ideas for a term paper/project/advertisement/business?

As far as finding such people, I've learned the term "idea flow" to describe a scale by which you may be able to identify people to help in this arena. People with a high idea flow (most likely you) tend to come up with ideas very quickly and have little trouble brainstorming. The trade-off is that they cannot focus easily on one subject for a long period of time.

Yep! That's me!

People with a low idea flow (like me), however, can concentrate and focus themselves quite easily - they often will "beat a dead horse" (for lack of a better term) in conversation. The trade-off there is that it is very difficult to look at an object or idea from different angles... and even when this is done, it isn't quickly.

That's probably my target market. People who
can come up with ideas, but have things that they'd much rather do. Any ideas on how to find them? (OK, that's probably my job, right?) How about, "Where can I find more information on this concept and the characteristics of high/low idea flow people?"
It helps lots -- it proves that there is actually a market.
