Oh man, I remember about 10 years I got so annoyed with my buys-ass gym and having to wait in line to use a machine that I came up with the idea to track real-time gym attendance and machine usage. It was going to be called WaitLift. It never went further than that awesome name.

That is an exceptional name. If you still want to build it, we have a real-time API. Love supporting apps :) (Density cofounder here)
I went further, setup a landing page and sent out some customer validation emails...most responded that they didn't have the problem.

Ultimately I didn't pursue it mainly because I had no real passion for the idea itself; it was a problem only when I was traveling and staying at busy hotels with many other business travelers wanting to use the gym at the same time.

NoLinePump, ZeroLatencyGains, etc. A marketing person would have a field day naming your idea!
