Journal NeMon'ess's Journal: Is it still possible to out-do a google or yahoo feature? 3

I don't mean come up with a better search engine. I mean one of their features like orkut or flickr? So now you can presume the idea I have isn't in those departments. But I have an idea for what I think is the missing killer feature in an existing app.

It actually turns out the company that comes closest to my idea isn't yahoo or google, which makes me think those two are either working on it already, or seriously missing out. It's a missing piece that would unify, compliment, and or augment two or more of their existing apps.

So I think my site would kick ass and the competition would be sluggish to respond or wouldn't want to completely duplicate my idea as it would force them to change their simplified approach. Except then I figure if I had any real success they would modify their sites to get users back. I wouldn't at all mind being bought by them though.

That's my million dollar idea with loads of risk. I have another I'd like to think is worth five or six figures a year, but from my research no one is doing it yet, at least not in English. I'm leaning towards working on the second site.
