A forum for sharing and discovering project ideas
It often happens that one has a brilliant idea for a project, but not the willpower and personal alignment to bring it to life. The EA forum has at least 3 massive lists testifying to this: for [post ideas](https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/9AEEqDR8zcQv2XmsB/...), for [research ideas](https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/MsNpJBzv5YhdfNHc9/...) and for [new organisations to start](https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/K5R35pgPFk3DcGyRp/...)).

What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
It often happens that one has a brilliant idea for a project, but not the willpower and personal alignment to bring it to life. The EA forum has at least 3 massive lists testifying to this: for [post ideas](https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/9AEEqDR8zcQv2XmsB/...), for [research ideas](https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/MsNpJBzv5YhdfNHc9/...) and for [new organisations to start](https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/K5R35pgPFk3DcGyRp/...)). It also often happens that when one does venture out to find ideas to pursue that would fit well with them, one finds none. Good ideas are drowned amidst the million other discussions on social media. Some ideas take too long, some don't arouse enough interest, and others are just... outdated. Hence the flood of people building things that already exist, doing things that even they themselves know won't make a real difference in the world. I've built a solution: a forum exclusively dedicated for project ideas. Share things you want to see happen in the world, discover things you actually want to do. For now, there's just some handy filters – more to come as the number of ideas grows. I appreciate your feedback! PS: I'm also reachable via email: ys2256[at]cornell[dot]edu

- ASA site to help you validate ideas in bulk2020 · ▲93
Hi HN! I made a really quick web app to help people validate their ideas. The app is a simple landing page builder, but every page includes a really simple Yes/No "Are You Interested?" poll. Every vote is recorded and tracked, and if they click yes they are brought to a page where they can submit an email. This makes validating ideas super easy because you can post your link to different communities and get statistically significant results as well as build an email list. Given an hour, you could easily create 50 different landing pages and be able to validate your ideas in bulk. The…
- AGA good excuse to explore that side project idea2019 · ▲17
If you're like me, you have at least a half-dozen (half-baked) ideas for side projects sitting on your "idea shelf" waiting for the right opportunity to come along and give you that spark to get started. At my day job (Bridge.Academy), we found that many of the incoming developers entering our program shared the same experience so we decided to do something about it and formalize the process of picking up a new technology you are trying to learn and applying it through a side-project with a program we're calling "The Bridge Tournament". It's designed to give you that extra bit of motivation…
