I am a final year computer Science Engineering student. I am generally good in programming (can use many languages and learn new ones quite instinctively). My area of interest is primarily developing useful applications and system programming but i will not mind ideas from other spheres as long as it include a considerable scope of programming. If the idea is a current hot topic than it will be appreciated. I hope you understand that i want to develop something useful.
I do have some ideas but they are not up to my own expectations. Please help me out.
Thanks.

A large scale data compression system only viable for huge databases with tons of repetitive data. What the program would do is delete the repetitive data, and create a link to where the program can get the data, so there wont a lot of data wasted.
Ex.
There are 4 files that have 500 paragraphs of words, but all of them have 200 of those lines that are the same. The program would create a link in the files, to tell the retreiving program where the 200 lines can be found. This would reduce the size from 4*500 = 2000 to 4*300 + 200 +1(for the link) =1401. A huge saving in data size if used in tandem with other compression protocols
If you do use this idea, please send an email to pandus3d at yahoo.com

Be prepared for your counter int to overflow its buffer.
