Forum/Twitter/email intermediary service

There are lots of people out there in public life (bloggers, game developers, etc.) who simply don't want to deal with obscenity-laden death threats on a daily basis. It wouldn't be that difficult to set up an intermediary service that would permit filtration of this stuff, perhaps coupled with law-enforcement reporting for anything credible.

It wouldn't necessarily even need to be that expensive.

This could kind of hook into a generalized social-media interface that could coordinate multiple services.

Zero to revenue in five weeks

Some kind of exploration support tool would be neat. Here's a quick little vignette about how this approach to online services can work.

Outbox

A service to pick up your mail and digitize/handle it for you, charging $4.95 a month in select markets. That's surprisingly low to me, since they actually go to your place with a key and get your mail (urban apartments) - not every day, though.  Still impressive.

That's easily clonable for any local market. Eventually the PO Box providers will surely also add that.
