Scratching an itch

General Add comments

I’ve been doing a bit of reading tonight and came across this article from Evan William’s, of Blogger fame, on “Ten Rules for Web Startups“…

“No. 6. Be Self Centered - Great products almost always come from someone scratching their own itch. Create something you want to exist in the world. Be a user of your own product. Hire people who are users of your product. Make it better based on your own desires.”

A good point, and one that I’m actually following with my own service/product. I plan on following the “eat your own dogfood” idea and building stuff that I would find useful and want to use often.

It’s an old post, and many of you would have read it already but if, like me, you missed it, go read the rest of the points sometime.
