Ask HN: Got any simple website ideas?
Does HN have any ideas for a simple website? I am currently busy evaluating several web frameworks for my future projects. I am looking for some simple, small website ideas that I could implement in order to evaluate these frameworks. Just building "Hello, World!" applications or the same basic blog over-and-over again doesn't really appeal to me. I'd much prefer to build something actually useful while I'm at it :-) I have read that some of you have ideas all the time. I'm stumped, so I'd gladly take any of your ideas that you are not going to implement anyway!

The best thing about this site is that is shows you where you are in queue. As you do more social things to share the site, you can see yourself moving up in the queue.

1. An algorithm per day - website that puts up links to a new algorithm every day.
2. A site that takes in many tech-related RSS feeds and uses a recommendation algorithm to suggest stories to read based on what you look at.

Collect free books, videos and other online resources and arrange by topics/subjects for users who are trying to teach themselves a skill. You can also provide study groups, Q&A and more.
replicate simple site like Pinterest. It's relatively simple. forget the complication of ACL and just concentrate on the front/backend business.
Nice ideas all, thanks!
