Adafruit Learning System: Adafruit Learning System is partially an online store, partially a knowledge base and partially a social community. Limor "Ladyada" Fried's Adafruit Industries is a hardware hacker's paradise. And while there's much more to Adafruit than Raspberry Pi-related products and information, the project ideas you'll find in the Learning System are particularly powerful because they're based around lessons that teach you the skills you need for more complex tasks down the road.
Embedded Linux Wiki: It's really a cliche to say that sometimes quality is more important than quantity, but, often, that really is the case. The RPi Projects section of the Embedded Linux Wiki may not be the largest list around, but that doesn't mean these aren't some of the more interesting ideas you'll run into. Plus, the tabular format with information about each project's difficulty makes finding a project suited to your skill level much easier.
The Magpi: What started as an idea being kicked around an online forum by some hardcore Raspberry Pi enthusiasts has grown into a print magazine, fan community, and a branded Raspberry Pi case. Issues of this magazine include much more than project ideas, so it's a great way to stay up on current Raspberry Pi news while looking for your next project idea.
MAKE: MAKE Magazine is now a well-established in the world of DIY electronics hobbies. The brand now includes the print magazine, Maker Faire, and tons of free online content. And, it's in that online content that you'll find some great project ideas for your Raspberry Pi board.
Raspberry Pi Foundation: With so many fans and user communities popping up all over, it's easy to forget that the official Raspberry Pi forums right on the Raspberry Pi website have a whole section dedicated to project ideas. It's an active group that's well worth checking out.
Raspberry Pi on Google+: Open source is alive and well on social networks. And, Raspberry Pi is certainly no stranger to things that people love to talk about on Google+. With a fan community boasting over 25,000 members, this is a great resource for connecting directly with some of Raspberry Pi's most vocal and active users while also picking up tips and ideas for your next project.
Raspberry PI Community Projects: The large, well-known media outlets generally provide consistent and informative data about Raspberry Pi, but overlook the small independent bloggers, and you might just miss out. This blog is updated regularly and provides posts not only about project ideas but also general interest information but also curates with all the passion and care that can make blogs so much fun to read.
Raspberry Pi Spy: This blog has purely been created for the love of Raspberry Pi. Spy delivers content on hardware of interest, tutorials, and project ideas related to Raspberry Pi boards. The posts are more inclined towards the tutorials than general project ideas but you will definitely find some inspiration here.
