i don't know. find a way to take away some of the pain I feel as a computer user:

having to have like 30 different logins for all the sites and communities that interest me where i inevitably wind up using the same password for all of them and a similar username for most of them

feeling paranoid when i browse the internet on a windows machine even when i use firefox, run windows update, and avoid leet juarez d00d sites

being frustrated that the extension language in excel is fine for quick, minor things but doesn't scale up to real software development efforts while the users i develop solutions for have no appreciation of how craptacular VBA is

you can probably think of more.

See Microsoft CardSpaces (InfoCard). I don't know if it will catch on but it is very sound technically.
