Need an idea for a webapp? Start here
A…way of thinking about how to choose web projects is to take something that everyone does with their friends and make it public and permanent. (Permanent as in permalinked.)
When I came across this quote from Kottke it helped to give me some confidence that there was real potential in my idea…after letting things marinate for a long while (months/years) I’m finally starting to bring my vision into focus.
Steps I’m taking to shape things:
- What action will your app help accomplish/what problem are you trying to solve?
- How is this problem currently solved vs. how do you propose to solve it? (if it’s not a 10x better improvement, it might be a feature instead of a product.
- What’s the basic functionality needed to test if your app indeed solves a problem in a better/meaninful way (ie: fuck style) this is where I’m currently at
- Assuming the product’s working like you hoped, what’s the minimum feature set needed for a worthwhile v1.0?
