I just mapped my 100th product idea. It changed how I think about building.

Two months ago, I started writing down every product idea instead of chasing whichever one felt exciting.

Today, I hit number 100.

Surprisingly, the biggest lesson isn't that I have 100 ideas.

It's that most of them aren't independent ideas at all.

They're connected.

One problem leads to another.
One tool reveals a missing piece.
Eventually, you stop seeing products and start seeing a system.

I've already shipped 4 of them, and building those changed the remaining 96.

Some ideas became better.
Some turned out to be unnecessary.
Others split into smaller, more useful products.

The list keeps evolving.

So I don't really think of it as a backlog anymore.

It's more like a map of problems I want to solve.

I'm curious how other founders approach this.

Do you keep a long-term product map, or do you focus entirely on the next thing to ship?
