Following the example of a few good friends, I decided to joined them on a 100:10:1 project. Simply put: write down 100 ideas (anything you would like to do, anything wild), them pick 10 of them up to build MVPs (you can/should work on them concurrently), and choose one of those ideas into a legitimate release.

I felt this initiative played really well with another quest I took in January: planning the whole year by weeks and open sourcing my goals (inspired by Una’s project). I pretty sure this will help me to nail down a few finished projects. So, without further ado, here are the 100 (unreviewed) ideas I was able to gather:
