Ideas

My latest Codesnipers post is about choosing your idea. In summary form, don't let all the execution is everything talk convince you that the basic idea doesn't matter. It doesn't have to be a great idea, it probably doesn't have to be a secret, and you do have to execute it well, but you still need to choose a sound business idea and build something that somebody wants.

A quick dig around the Digest archives turned up a few useful idea links:-

• Bugninja's IdeaScore site.
• Ian Landsman's The Practical Entrepreneur.
• John Osher in Entrepreneur magazine: What not to do.

And one I missed from Will Schroter, you can't protect a good idea.
