I completely understand for your neglect of Appointment Reminder. I've also had my share of projects I'd start but lose interest in it because, well, I was not consumed by the problem I was solving.<p>So during the years I worked sequentially (or sometimes at the same time) on a gift certificate template gallery, a travel insurance comparator, a body-mass-index calculator website, a file sharing solution for businesses targeted at the french market.<p>The reasoning behind all these projects was to make "passive income". And by running multiple websites I would make a nice income from them all combined.<p>After developing and marketing the last of these projects (file sharing one, post-mortem here: <a href="http://www.sparklewise.com/post-mortem-5-mistakes-i-made-with-my-first-online-product/" rel="nofollow">http://www.sparklewise.com/post-mortem-5-mistakes-i-made-wit...</a> ) I realized that the most important thing is not to have a "good idea" but to work on a problem you want to solve and with people you can relate to or at least that you enjoy working with. That's why I now focus on serving SaaS businesses, because that's actually something I care about and will likely care about for years to come.<p>Thanks for all the transparency Patrick and for setting an example for the rest of the HN crowd. And good luck with the fatherhood :-)
