10 Ideas Blog

The 10 Ideas Blog was inspired by the words of James Altucher in his National Best Seller, Choose YourselfEach week, we sit down and challenge our brain to come up with ten ideas for new inventions.  This is a great exercise for anyone to participate in, and sometimes we come up with really great concepts (and sometimes, they’re a little crazy!) Our father, Ben Greenfield wrote an article about why this is such a good idea, and you can read that article here.

driIn this installment of 10 ideas, we had a lot of ideas about how combining technology could make for a more interesting and better living arrangement.  Imagine, if you could take your house with you, WHEREVER you went!  We thought about that, and other ways to make technology and transport improved for a better living!

Terran on Land & Water

I, Terran, was thinking about better living in the woods, when we are out on hikes and camping trips, and I thought it would be awesome to have an inflatable igloo that could fold up to a tiny size, so it could be easily stashed in a camping pack, but then would be able to be set up super simple.  It would have to be very durable material, so it wouldn’t get holes or tears, but I imagine it would keep you very warm and dry.

River on Land & Water

I, River, started thinking about all of the ways that a house could be made mobile, and then all of the ways that different types of transportation could be turned into homes.  Suddenly, I was imagining whole homes flying through the air, drive across the country, or sail over rough seas.

You can see some of our other ideas from the week here:
