7 most crowded spaces for your new web startup
- danielha 20y agoLook at them so easily and distinctly categorize all the different spaces of the web. I'm sure we'll be seeing plenty of successful startups that significantly overlap several of these categories. Don't look to strictly find a set that your company falls into; just solve a problem no one has adequately solved before.
- brlewis 20y agoGood point about photo sharing. But what's really surprising is that people are still making text-sharing sites. Do you realize how many text-sharing sites are already out there? It's pretty much hopeless today to do anything with text that hasn't already been done.
- zkinion 20y agoYeah, theres a ton of startups in all these areas. One must find a totally different approach or do something different.
- mattculbreth 20y agoThat's a great post. We all know that some places are overloaded, but it's nice to have a concise list like that. Quality and differentiation usually win out though. Hopefully somebody here is working in one of these areas and we can see it. I guess heySan! and Zenter come to mind, now that I think of it.
- davidw 20y agoThere are a lot of time trackers/project management/todo list things, too... I've been finding that out with my Stuff To Do application:-/
- volida 20y agothis must be the most pessimistic article I've ever read in my life by the most pessimistic writer out there! If Paul Buchheit thought like this, we would never have GMail.
