Here's one idea that thought me IO::Socket and various CGI techniques (and a LOT of JavaScript/HTML/CSS): A webbased Napster/Scour/OpenNap/CuteMX searchengine. (never placed it online, not gonna put it there either). I'm glad I did it and I use it every day (too bad Scour went away and Napster might leave too, soon). I did the search engine while a friend learned Win32 API by coding the download client to go with it ... great way to spend a summer :-) Of course I always have a bunch of whacky ideas ... never get bored :-) Hope you take up the challenge, it's a great way to learn real-world stuff!
