1 - A MMORPG ( Mass Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game ) implementation of a 
chat client much like IM, except in a graphical world, focus would be 
researching techniques for synchronizing massive numbers of players 
communication, pinpointing problems, such as player disconnects and finding 
ways to maxmize bandwidth utilization

2 - A router/firewall transfer program.  This program would be able to 
transfer files from point to point regardless of firewall implementations ( to 
a point ).  HTTP transfer is the primary method of file transfer, as it is 
easily sent through port 80 on firewalls, but perhaps employ other methods as 
well.
