Having third parties provide ideas usually doesn't result in
anything interesting. I have a list of projects on my Web page, but
they're all extremely unlikely to appeal to anyone who isn't me (and
even I'm a bit cool on some of them).
It's much better to ask what are you interested in. GUIs?
You could write a simple game or application with Tkinter, Swing, GTk,
or whatever toolkit you want to learn, or join an existing effort like
PyRPG. Command-line stuff? Perhaps there's some system
administration script you could write; for example, I have a PPP
startup script for my own use; maybe there's something you do often
that could be automated.
