Two Decembers ago, I slapped together a Github pages site and put a Mailchimp signup form with a brief thought: "Why isn't there a place to showcase software projects to be shown to developers". Over 300 people signed up and then I didn't know what to do. I was looking for a way for people to share their low-fidelity ideas without any intention of being more than just a project. Whether you have a side-project you want to be a future business, a project that you are hoping will help pay for itself, or just a weekend hack that you want to share and bounce off other people - I wanted to provide a place where the idea can be shared and validated. I wanted to collect any cool projects that were being talked about at meetups, shared internally at companies, or being worked on and experimented with small groups. I wanted people to have a place where they could validate their ideas without any judgement or expectation for profitability. The idea was simple, I send out an email every two weeks and ask for people to submit their cool ideas. I expected people would respond with a summary of their project and a way where people could learn more about it. I would summarize the responses each week and send it in the call for cool ideas. Last time, I didnt have enough responses/time to put this email together. I recently built something that will help simplify this process and want to give it another shot.
