And they say ideas are a dime a dozen.. Yeah they are.. but good ideas are not..
It's all about execution right? Not exactly. As this list proves: good ideas are hard to find, don't like to be let out of their secret boxes and don't exactly grow on trees.
So no.. it isn't all about execution as so many people have said on this board.. It may be that through execution you come to refine the original idea but to make something people want you need a good idea + good execution.
A travel website where you enter the date and the amount of money you have to spend on a ticket, and it tells you all the places you can go.
Isn't there a YC-backed startup that does this? I seem to recall meeting one of the founders at one of the parties after last year's Startup School, but I can't remember the company's name for the life of me.
What about generalizing the "Baker Street" app so that you can tag any place with music or audio? :-)
I like the app for the wife/gf - the guy wants to call it INag. Basically an app that lets the wife/gf assign tasks to get things done.
I was kinda disappointed http://wappr.com/ didn't take off like this has. I found about it via HN a few months ago. Of course, for things like this community plays a huge role. Another site I like for ideas is: http://www.halfbakery.com/
On a slight tangent, for the past month or so I've begun making a list of all the random ideas that pop into my head or get suggested by others. My old-self would guard this list to death but having been on HN for years, I realize sharing ideas is often better. Here's my list of every idea that interests me: http://bulletxt.zetabee.com/share?n=1548888784&h=SHdydmJ... - it is in no specific order other than small/medium/large to denote the expected effort I think a project will take.
I'm very optimistic that now that I have a real list, I will be more easily able to check some of those off. Do others here on HN maintain similar lists of apps/projects that you want do some day?
