Worldwide 1 Hour Summer Ideas Brainstorm Experiment

graph of things people want to doYou probably have ideas in mind of things to do in summer.

Well, through the magic of a service from Amazon.com that lets you hire workers by the task— incidentally a good source of spare change—I asked an anonymous group of people to come up with ideas of things to do for summer. They had 1 hour to do this and didn’t know I was from a life list website.

I thought it would be interesting to see the actions people want to take, in terms of verbs, and look at:
1) the commonalities
2) the verbs by themselves, not attached to goals or specific nouns.
Some ideas obviously were copied from websites. Some pie in the sky. Perhaps others from the people’s own life lists.

If you search by topic on SuperViva or look at the most popular ideas you will find lots of ideas using these verbs.

Here is the actual list of summer ideas, with more interesting results.
