It's good to try out different ideas, but be careful not to give up on one and switch to something else too easily. Every project is going to have a period where it sucks, nobody's using it, and you don't want to work on it anymore. If you give up and switch to another project every time that happens, you're probably never going to succeed. When I've been working on too many things, I find it way too easy to switch over to another unstarted project rather than develop something that's out but not succeeding. See Seth Godin's book The Dip for more about it.
Where this gets difficult is being able to tell the difference between a failure that isn't worth more effort and a failure that needs more work to become a success. ;)
