I want to do something with my life, but other than write, invest in real estate and make my ideas become reality, I don't know what I want to do. What I HAVE decided to do was completely reimage the ShaiGar brand. Before ShaiGar was synonymous with "troll", "/b/tard", "emotionally immature prat", "really cool nice guy once you get to know him", and even "Attention Deficit Disordered ENTP smoking weed and crack*". In order to rebrand I've removed the websites from:
http://www.ShaiGar.org ***currently in the process of removing all the data from there, and uploading the placeholder***
http://www.ShaiGar.com
http://www.ShaiGar.net
All these websites are now being held up with just one picture. What I'd like to do, is use them more creatively and in a way that can benefit people, rather than merely entertain myself and hold all my data.

I'd like to hear some Ideas from you guys. The reasons I'm not just going with my own ideas is because I used to flirt with a girl on INTPCentral from southern california who was an ENFP, one day I was calling her up and her INTP brother answered the phone... He and I got to talking and I forgot all about talking to his sister. He had some magnificent thought out ideas that I thought about in the shower and decided that could work easy. I gave him a phone call a few days later with a lot of my extrapolated ideas and he was flabbergasted that I'd even entertain the ideas outside of the conversation. He just didn't think they were that good.

You guys can have magnificent ideas that are really worth paying attention to, and you don't even know it. I know it wasn't just an isolated case where I was merely paying attention to somebody as an equal, because I had another conversation with an INTP later that year in a book store that produced Ideas I'm still thinking about.

Lay your ideas on me, How should I Re-Brand those websites? (Bearing in mind that I'm dropping my pseudonym in favour of my real name)

I'm not sure how or in what way you want people to benefit? Could you elaborate on that?

People mostly benefit from Webapps with which they can "generate own content". Like the examples you listed above. They benefit from pages, which give them some frame in which they can express themselves. There they provide something for themselves...

I watched a video a TED yesterday (ted.com) which was quite interesting and of a similar topic. I'll search the link.

EDIT: Ok, here is the link:
http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/clay_shirky_on_institutions_versus_collaboration.html
It is about the benefits of contributionframes which allow people to contribute just once or very much. Where there is no barrier for a person to join and contribute just once. Perhaps it is not that fitting here, but it is interesting and loosely related.

I could argue that people don't benefit from World Vision, Facebook, Ebay...

Hope you're aiming higher than that.

So you want to be a focal point for political change, and are erasing the old ShaiGar, but google will reveal all. You're looking for some grand gesture of change that will overshadow the electronic legacy. You have a Paris Hilton sized reputation, so are in need of something really stunning with which to overturn it...

this is such an uncrackable chestnut that you've turned to INTP brains for answers.

Not something achievable, like generating power from contained fusion , but the nigh on impossible... making Richard Whereat adored by all.

Do we get paid? :p

Anyway, there's my answer. Screw websites and pandering to our lowest social denominator. Promote fusion. Fund the first privately built commercial-scale Bussard fusion reactor. Open the door to truly clean energy. Lead the way.

The person who brings Bussard's legacy to life for all people (the US navy is working on development) will be seen as a true visionary in years to come.

Expect my invoice .:D
