Google’s Project 10 to 100 will pay you $10 Million for your Idea!
With a humble thought “we don’t believe we have the answers, but we do believe the answers are out there.” Google launches its Project-10-to-the-100 (Project 10100) inviting ideas for solving problems and helping the world.
Google has setup a fund of $10 million which it plans to give away for the best idea or ideas. For example, if only one idea is selected then $10 million will be awarded to execute it or if 5 ideas are winners then they get $2 million each.
Ideas can be about anything under the sun and you can submit as many ideas as you want. Google has used 5 terms to define the criteria for the best idea.
- Reach: How many people would this idea affect?
- Depth: How deeply are people impacted? How urgent is the need?
- Attainability: Can this idea be implemented within a year or two?
- Efficiency: How simple and cost-effective is your idea?
- Longevity: How long will the idea’s impact last?
Google also tried to make it simpler for people to understand what they are looking for so that they get a high quality of ideas. Google sited an example of HippoRoller which is a simple idea but has a huge impact and is even related to technology remotely.

"These ideas can be big or small, technology-driven or brilliantly simple — but they need to have impact," Google said in a news release. "We know there are countless brilliant ideas that need funding and support to come to fruition." [Link]

THE BELOW DESCRIPTION IS NARRATED IN THE INTEREST OF HOW TO SAVE THE FUEL
THTS IS ABOUT AUTOMATIC SIGNAL STOPPER:-
If there is a four road junction signal , This signal will be working for at least 13 hrs/day , In that manner is only one signal will be working at a time all the other three signals will be stopped for 30 to 60 seconds instance if there are 100 to 120 vehicles in one way signal , Almost all the engine of the vehicles will be running to minimum 30 to 60 seconds so by this minimum 10 ml petrol will be losses by cash & every vehicles .If we count for 120 vehicles the calculation will be 1,200 ml petrol for one minute at one point .
