Show HN: Houston – Find great problems to solve via a weekly newsletter

2 pointsby XavierPladevallabout 6 years ago
I posted this tool I created on a small subreddit last week and it was incredibly well received<p>Houston - https:&#x2F;&#x2F;houston.substack.com&#x2F;<p>I wanted to share it on here as well since ya&#x27;ll might find it useful to find great problems to work on and build businesses around that!<p>What is it? Houston is a weekly newsletter with a curated list of interesting problems that people have but have struggled to solve. The idea is that with time Houston becomes a repository of great business opportunities for entrepreneurs that are not sure where to start or don&#x27;t have a great idea that they&#x27;re passionate about.<p>Why did you do this? I created Houston because as a future entrepreneur I&#x27;ve personally struggled with finding good problems to solve. I keep hearing that you need to solve a problem that you yourself have but frankly after thinking long and hard I haven&#x27;t really being able to come with an idea that I think can one day become a great company. Ironically this motivated me to create Houston.<p>Sign up and submit your own problems via Twitter with the hashtag #HoustonWHAP or by email to get featured in next week&#x27;s newsletter! Let me know if you have any questions(:<p>P.S.: I am calling this project Houston as in &quot;Houston, we have a problem&quot;. I thought it was clever ¯\<i>(ツ)</i>&#x2F;¯
