When I was little, I lamented that everything had already been invented, I was born too late to really have an impact. Truth is, there are people with problems all around that you might be able to solve. The solution could be a simple script, a standalone app, an online service, an embedded system, or something else.

Other times it allowed a capability previously unavailable and completely changed the way people were able to work.
