Create a full-fledge forum from scratch, if you can.

You can also make an online compiler supporting multiple languages.

Better go with a CMS (Content Management System with Ticketing Support.) over a Bulletin Board Application. The reason Is that it will be easy to build in first place as lots of materials will be available online and offline plus it'll be useful as it's more in demand than Bulletin Board Aplications.

No offence to Sujay but BB/Forum work will fetch less usage and more complexity compared to CMS.Additionally a CMS will require lesser complex DB backend compared to Forum where huge DB backend and expertise DB knowledge may be required.

Just my 2 cents.

i like the idea of " You can also make an online compiler supporting multiple languages. "
Thanks will look into this

open for more suggestions.

friend is a female so you know ... what i mean. expertise is limited here.

Well brother, what you said was completely a business view, and what I meant was purely educational view. What's the purpose of a project if you don't work from scratch? I know all the complexities involved in it, but it will also make one learn many things. May be it's not good from the point of practical feasibility, but who knows if you can beat vB?
Just my view.

If you want to be a programmer, be serious!! Getting an IT job is not that easy!! There are lakhs of graduates searching for a job for years!!!
I suggest you tell your friend to be serious. Work hard. Code harder. Because the right project can take him to places. Fetch an IT job with ease.

The best books for doing projects in .NET framework is the Professional series books from Wrox. (Programming Books, Free Code Downloads, Ebooks, Blogs, Articles, Forums - Wrox)
E-commerce projects are easier to do than desktop applications!!

^WOW Thanks man. i will pass this to friend and see what we can build. thank you again.

like he said before, web application is easier to build than a windows application... And if you are making a web application be sure to implement well structured architecture. Ensure that Business/Logic , Data Layer, UI layer are separate from each other. And also don't make unnecessary server calls, use scripting language as much as possible.

People always look for well defined , designed projects.

Professional ASP.NET MVC4 - > The Model-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern separates an application into three main components: the model, the view, and
the controller. The ASP.NET MVC framework provides an alternative to the ASP.NET Web Forms pattern for creating Web applications. The ASP.NET MVC framework is
a lightweight, highly testable presentation framework that (as with Web Forms-based applications) is integrated with existing ASP.NET features, such as master
pages and membership-based authentication. The MVC framework is defined in the System.Web.Mvc assembly.
