So, I tend to come up with a lot of ideas where I think “wow, that would be cool, someone should make/do that”, and then I realize that I don’t have the time / motivation / commitment / talent / upfront capital to do it. So, I’ve made a series of posts of free ideas. If I’m not going to do them, at least someone can. Or, if nothing else, others can be entertained by the thought of doing them as well.
Given the vastness of humanity, and the Internet in documenting it, it’s possible someone else may have done some of them, and I’m just not aware of it. In that case I would more than welcome people to point them out in the comments. It’s always nice to see your ideas come to life, even if someone else does it, and even if they came up with it and did it before you even thought of it.
I’ve decided Friday is a good day for posting these ideas, because:
- It’s the end of the work week and gives people free time to work on them if they like.
- I like the idea of your mind / ideas being freed at the end of the work week.
- It gives me structure so I remember when to post them.
- There are no days of the week that start with the letter “i” and I like alliteration.
