6 days ago, we launched
http://sideprojectors.com http://sideprojectors.com
I wouldn't call these projects "failed", but many developers abandon, pause, stop their projects for various reasons.
So far, we have had more than 50 projects posted and as of this morning two projects have been sold.
Loved the approach that Sacha is taking as suggested in the post, sideprojectors could be another way of saving an interesting side project that could benefit others!
- sgdesign 13y agoThat's a great idea. Maybe I should submit http://thetoolbox.cc/ http://thetoolbox.cc/ ? I still like that project but I don't have the time to keep it up to date…
- sideproject 13y agoThat would be super. :)
- sgdesign 13y agoDone: http://www.sideprojectors.com/project/project/70 http://www.sideprojectors.com/project/project/70 Although I'm a bit wary about selling it, because it's the kind of project that could easily be used for spammy purposes…
- _frog 13y agoAwesome to see you guys finally launched this. I was another finalist in Hackagong (a local hackathon here in Wollongong, Australia) when the initial version of this was being built and I loved what I saw. I'll have to keep it in mind next time I build a cool side project. I actually worked with Vero, one of the companies mentioned in Sacha's blog post, for a short time too. It's great to see so many Australian startups showing up on HN.
- morgante 13y agoThis looks awesome. What kind of traction have you seen? Anything getting sold for decent amounts?
- sideproject 13y agoFinal amount is between the seller & the buyer. I'll try to write up as a separate post, instead of doing it here. :)
