I have gone through numerous ideas this year only. I believe I am not alone in that.
Spent some time thinking about it, doing research, validating it ... eventually ditched all ideas and now working on something different.
I am wondering how those resources could be useful for someone else. Of course you always learn something new, which might help you in the next ventures, but most of it is just left somewhere on google drive. Not to mention domains for landing pages.
Is there a place where you can leave all your insights and resources, so someone else can try to make some use of it?
Hi Blaz--this is fairly interesting.
I too have a lot of "waste" ... would be happy to chat more about it.
It would be cool if there were a repository of ideas. However, I think I would be personally hesitant to add to it without being paid (after all...what if I realize how to improve the idea later?) and as a customer I probably wouldn't pay much to access it (after all...these ideas were dropped by their owners).

What if it was in the form of a indiehackers/founders fund. So everytime you add a project into the repository you get some equity and other people in the fund can work on it freely to make it grow. If there's any revenue (or profit actually) from any of these projects, then everyone gets a piece of it depending on their equity. This would also make it easier for people with different backgrounds to work on an idea together (developers, designers, marketers, etc.)
Hmm...that's interesting. I'm still hesitant but would be interested to learn more. See if Courtland will run a survey on the site to gauge interest.
Here are maybe two other approaches:
Hi. Thanks for your response. After forgetting about this, I have decided to quickly build something and see where it goes.
