project ideas for a noob
knowtheory: Sadly i don't have time to write a fuller post on this, to my regret.But i definitely agree with Paul Graham on this subject: http://www.paulgraham.com/ideas.htmlIf one pays attention carefully there are many opportunities for projects that present themselves weekly.  Some of your ideas will be bad, some of them good. But just keep thinking of things that may be cool to work on.I think the important part of finding ideas has nothing to do with programming.  You should find a subject you're interested in and something that you think would be cool to accomplish to help others.
