Sigh, just my luck. Follow up to Ideas, ideas, ideas

What a bummer.

A few months ago I wrote a post entitled “Ideas, ideas, ideas” where I talked about how I always have these ideas, but never really act on them. Well the big idea I talked about at the end of the post, I have learned recently, already out there and being worked on. =/ Here I was thinking I had an original idea, but there are always someone 10 steps ahead of me.

So now that it is out there I can say what it was/is. I had the idea for a site for gamers to be able to share gaming moments and achievements with their friends. It was going to be something like Twitter and would notify, view sort updates, your friends on what achievements you received as you received them. Along with that you could use it straight up like normal Twitter just to say what you were up to. Sounds interesting? Well check out Raptr.com. Oh well.

I guess I could still work on my idea, since there are some features I think would be great to see in something like this. Plus competition is always nice, but they have the people and money (through funding they received) to do what they are doing now. On the other hand I could send in those ideas and maybe see them show up one day.

Such is life. One day I will do something. Something I enjoy and hopefully so will others.
