Similar to Woot.com or my friend Jules Daily Gromit, One Day of Fame, would spend 24 hours focusing on one person, blogging about them, researching their past, what they are working on, who they have connected too. There would be incentives to study a person, make interviews about them.

This could work as a website, tv show, art exhibition and more. Rather than focus on highly famous people, the idea is to use network effects and clustering of media producers to highlight a person.

There could be various income streams including, advertising, person pays for focus or highgligh, licensing of content, or selling one's crafts or personal belongings through auction.

The idea is to shift the concept of growing a social network through friending and getting millions of users, into a high quality development network of individuals. A full year of this would generate 365 featured personalities, and would develop a culture around researching an individual. People could even vie for being featured, and people could vote on who will be featured next.

This would be an amazing tv show. It would be an amazing scaling opportunity.
