In what may well be our first SCOOP in the history of stupidbusinessideas.com, and we really aren’t expecting any more, we have discovered a curious domain name holding by our favorite social futility network – Facebook.
In what started out as a ‘not-so-stupid-idea’, your hosts here at SBI were working on a possible plan for WorldTV involving ad revenues and charity. We thought of an initiative that many websites could get involved in, displaying a logo on their website. The name we came up with for this idea… AdAid.
This flush of creativity all stemmed from an impromptu staff outing to the Cliffs of Moher – a particularly inspiring but rather windy spot on the left coast of Ireland. Upon our return to home base, we looked up the domain name AdAid.org, but guess what we found when we visited the domain… the Facebook home page.

At first we thought it was some kind of weird cookie behaviour but indeed, adaid.org really does link to Facebook. Here’s a Google search for Facebook and AdAid…

Would Facebook like to tell us something? If they don’t have any immediate plans for the domain, perhaps they could donate it to the cause? Quite apart from anything else, if they have it as a private domain registration, why is it linked to their homepage!

Are you one of the unfortunate people who has poor eyesight? Are you forced to wear glasses to live your life? Do you find the cost of professional laser eye surgery to be prohibitive?
We have the solution for you…simply purchase yourself a laser pointer and then proceed to stare into the beam for 10 minutes. You will notice that most laser pointers have a warning not to stare into the beam but this is a straight forward conspiracy by laser eye surgeons who don’t want you doing your own surgery.
Two of our staff recently completed their own surgery and even though their eyes now feel like they are on fire and they feel the need to constantly wear sunglasses, they are totally convinced that their eyesight may be better soon. Quite an endorsement I think everyone can agree.
We here at Stupid Business Ideas have a truck load of these laser pointers available for the knock down price of $800 a piece so don’t delay start giving awesome presentations with your new almost perfect eyesight now.
