Make a Wikipedia for code. Not a wikipedia about code, but a Wikipedia where the pages are the code. No references to outside tools/libraries, all the functions are either in the base language or references to other wikipedia-of-code pages. The pages are presented in a literate programming style.
Bring back the Inferno OS, but replace the original VM (Dis) with the Microsoft CLR.
Make a P2P publishing system for scientific publications. Let the contributing scientists have individual accounts, and manage reputations with a blockchain reputation system. Let people also donate their CPU cycles to scientific computations through this system. Require publications to store their data in a database format that your system's client can query and process with some programming language. Require all data tables, and results that appear in the publication's text be expressed as functions performed on data queried from the database (or potentially databases from other publications.)
Random idea: How about a mobile multi-player game where any player can grab and throw digital balls found around them and the goal is to get them in specific spots? They could be found using GPS/augmented reality and you could shoot them using your phone's sensors by swinging the phone or a gun/canon app with specified settings for example.
I've tried to find a technical co-founder a couple of times, it didn't work out. I think there are just so many "idea guys", it's hard to differentiate the good ones from bad ones.
I've been successful enough with my ideas that I just hire programmers and designers and just bootstrap everything myself. It's just easier that way.
