The Fun-o-Meter idea machine is a really neat concept and a fantastic idea for those inspired by creativity and innovation. It looks just like a classic gum ball machine, but instead of vending coloured balls of bubble gum, it rolls out fun ideas.

For 50 cents, people get to check out fascinating ideas from people around the world based on articles posted on ZoomDoggle. For two quarters, people got a fun idea, a map, a standard vending machine toy, a lucky penny and a quarter back, so it really only ends up being a 24 cent fun investment.

Each day, the machine was moved to different spots are New York and ZoomDoggle tracked people’s reactions in photos, as seen in this gallery.

ZoomDoggle’s machine was such a hit, he’s already looking to restock it with new ideas and is asking people for their contributions.

There should be one on every corner, this is such a cute idea. I read that the machines the inventor bought were pre-set for 50 cents and he only wanted to charge a quarter...so he refunds the excess in the 'prize'.

an idea should be rewarded more than 50 cents! or at least there should be different relative value for creative relevance! the more genius level the idea, the more votes and support, the greater the monetary growth power!
