I definitely get the point of MIT and Stanford having amazing entrepreneurial cultures, which is something that we don't have here in Newfoundland. I'd love to be able to tell people about something that I've made -- but I haven't made anything. I have no idea what to make and no clue where to start. |

Option a is a bad, but easy one -- go check out http://blog.stevepoland.com/100-web-start-up-business-ideas/ and do one. My opinion is that most of those ideas pretty much suck, though.
Option b: pick a non-technology related hobby (for instance, I like sailing). Go find some forums related to the hobby, and say "I'm a university student and a software developer, and I want to make some software. What do you guys need? What would make your life better? What bugs you about any hobby related software you buy?"
Read 40-200 pages of responses. Pick one that seems dead-simple to implement. Do it.
