Study on service science, particularly what are the topics to research in the near future:
- Internationalisation of services
- Design of service work
- Service innovation
- Technologies and services
- Transformation processes in the economy (from good production to service provision)
+ Basic service research
Defining the notion of "Fairchise" in economic context, as an franchise model (CoWorking, Networking) that is given away for free but does licensing and brand building
What does it need to enable customers to innovate by themselfs. Thomke and Hippel explains what it need and continue the thought begun in "Soruces of Innovation"

Entrance into the tools which enables massive feed processing, only thing missing is the realtime semantic annotation of the filtered feeds; Introduces activity streams for me, which seams like an opportunity to set up service networks
Browsing and filtering in social web feeds; summarization, recommendation and personalization of messages; An extension could be a semantic enabled filtering
Open source Appengine, maybe a tool to enable fast growing and wide distributed service process engine; invent and set up on low scale, test and be prepared for hard scaling
