I know of so many creatives who have been waiting for an idea like KilledIdeas.com. How many concepts are conjured up, and even developed, only to be dropped at the last minute, left in a drawer to be forgotten about forever?
Now we have a place to showcase this work! The creative publishing agency, Blurb.com, is putting together a book of ideas that never quite made the cut and they are accepting submissions on their website.
Finally we have an outlet for all those great ideas that never made it into production.
