I need help with ideas for a website for homework!!? - orangekitty215 - 01-20-2013 05:37 PM

Okay, so I'm pretty much in panic mode right now on my homework. It's for my web programming class, and the assignment is SO open-ended, and I'm not very creative when it comes to coming up with ideas. I have to make a web page that makes ajax calls to at least three different web services to do something awesome with some complexity. I was given a short list of web service API's. From that list, I must use one API, and I'm allowed to use a second, but the third can't be on the list.

I've asked my professor what I should do since I'm completely blanking on the creativity aspect. He told me to ask people for ideas. I already asked people I knew, with no luck. So now I'm asking you. PLEASE help me, this assignment is due on Thursday, and I know I'm going to need all the time between now and then to code this thing.

This is the list of API's that I was given:
The Google search API
Google Geocoder
The del.icio.us API
The flickr API
Twitter's API
Facebook's "Open Graph" API
Amazon's product search API
