From ffffound to Behance Network to Wordpress to Flickr, I clicked across the sketch trail of a concept tinkerer. From the comment threads, it seems he has quite a few fans asking where they can buy the depicted mobile devices with double screens and immediate overlay translation and internet search. He says he has no plans to monetize his ideas (already occupied as a graphic designer), but some folks still gave advice and encouragement. Very Open Source in spirit.
There are a number of sites aggregating jolts of inspiration and its fascinating to observe how potential fans and feedback can emerge for napkin ideas. Related, here's a nice video visualization of Python's evolution (part of an experiment called code_swarm visualizing the collaborative creation of open source applications).
