Everyone should have a web app
Posted on 16 February 2008 by Robin FisherI’ve come up with a little idea for a web app.
It’s going to be for a niche market where the current solutions to the issue are enterprise level with a huge server licence and slightly-less-huge user licences. There is a lot of competition for the traditional solution but none for a simple, hosted solution.
The market I am targeting is historically very traditional and this may present a small barrier to adoption but this is for the sector in which I currently work and I know that I would want something like this.
It’s not going to come as a shock to say that I admire 37 Signals (who doesn’t?). Part of their ethos though is to build what you know and what you use. That way, there is less chance of featuritis. And I know exactly what this app should do.
