College Project

In my school I am doing a school project called the CIM with a project with Digital Video. Basically to theorize of a codec that can achieve the lowest bitrate at the high quality. So far I am still working on it.

Brandon, for an example, I would suggest designing a website to make it easier for people to shop and want to shop.

Just set it up like my CIM project.

What are the problems with the current internet shopping?

--Not like retail store, to 2d
--Antisocial, not meeting people
--Except for software, can't try anything out, like clothes or other products
--Very hard to browse like a regular store
--Takes a long time for shipments to come in
--Economy making shopping in general hard to overcome
--Like Darel Hamond said on SNL, "No one wants to spend 40 minutes online to save nine cents on a can of peas"

Than you say, how can I improve these current limitations?

--Use Adobe Atmosphere, makes it fell more like a retail store
--Incorporate audio and chat with people who are currently looking at similar products
--For trying out clothes, maybe you can invent a java or flash application that can caculate what a specific piece of clothing would look like on the person that is buying them. I know someone right now (forgot specifically who) is using webcam technology to achieve this by letting people see themselves with simulated clothes on the internet
--With Adobe Atmosphere, browsing would be simpler and more user friendly
--Maybe you can draw up a plan to have regional warehouses so cheap shipments can come faster to a consumer
--To solve the economy problem, you would have to talk to a finical adviser, I am not an expert in the stock market.
--Try to get people excited to use the internet instead of criticism from comedians

This of course it just an example on what you said you wanted to use.
