I try to think about things that are a PITA - and how software can fix that.
Maybe its simply automating a process for myself - or something larger,
like a full blown site for this or that.
I think the best ideas come when your not really trying - but also, if
your attempting to brainstorm, the key is
to get ideas out - you want to prime the idea pump, so you need to just
put pen to paper and start writing - don't stop.
If your sheet is blank, trying brainstorming with someone else, so you
can feed off each others ideas.

I have a large amount of free time on my hand and was sitting around
the house trying to come up with an idea for a piece of software that
people would actually use. Unfortunately the blank canvas that is my
mind is still blank. I guess it would be called "coders block" akin
to writers block. How do you counter measure this? I have been
trying to think of a unique cool idea for about four hours now and
have not come up with anything.
Another alternative to using my free time is to work on an open source
project but nothing seems stimulating/interesting right now.
