Ask HN: stupid startup idea, but it works?
if a startup idea is stupid, but it works, is that a good thing?
- colinsidoti 16y agoIf your startup works than it's good no matter what. I still consider Twitter stupid, but what do I know. Tons of people think Farmville is stupid, but Zynga is doing extremely well. It might not help that you think your own idea is stupid, though.

- suliamansaleh 16y agoits actually very interesting about what @colinsidoti said about twitter, its stupid but yet it kind of solves a problem, although twitter is very celebrity orianted!! thats why i don't like it!!!
- Scott_MacGregor 16y agoI am not a Twittery type of person either, I would rather have people tweet about me and what I am doing than do it myself. Although a lot of people do find it fun and fascinating. If what you have in mind for your startup solves a problem for people, that seems like something that may be on the right track to make some good money.
