What else can I do with my website?

[davestar_delux]

Hey, I've got a little website i'm running on my own server at the moment just to play around with and learn a bit more about the whole web development thing.

So far I've set up Apache, PHP, MySQL and also made a little password-protected area using htaccess (is that the right name?).

I've also got loads of stuff to install including Wordpress, a few forum softwares and a content management system (even though I have no content really).

I'm a bit stuck for ideas now, Is there anything else I could try out?

I'm in 3rd year of a computing degree so doesn't matter how technical something is, I'll give it a go.

I'm well aware it isn't difficult to set up what I have so far but I'm still learning plenty that you wouldn't expect. Just want to see how everyone else creates these things, there is no point in reinventing the wheel.

Thinking about doing like an online shop or something with proper encrypted bits and that but don't know where to start.

Also something using torrents maybe. I liked the sound of the uploader script, will have a search for something like that to implement. The server control panel is a good idea as well, what could I actually control it to do though?
