How to come up with a new Web 2.0 idea
It made me
energized 
"Coming up with the idea is always fun. Actually, what took longer was realizing that I had already finished this goal many times. And probably will, many times more."
How I did it: An idea works best when it helps answer some need of yours. So, I came up with the idea of Share This World (http://sharethisworld.com), prototyped it a bit, and then left the project to rest for over a year.
Just today, I figured out that by formulating what the site would be about, I had already finished the idea. Now would be the time for actually building the project.
If you're excited about this, let me know. I already have the domain, some screens and prototype code, but don't have the time to do the final coding myself.
Lessons & tips: Go with the gut. Write your idea down. Start small, but start now.
Resources: Ruby on Rails for prototyping.
