only about 20 years behind....

i love ideation. or at least what i understand it to be! i love coming up with ideas that i consider brilliant!! so for the last few years, i have been writing down the ideas on new apps that come to me whenever i need something. unfortunately, i am not internet nor app savvy enough to realize that some of these ideas already exist.... 

the latest being my app called decon (from deconstructed). it was meant to enable a business owner to deconstruct his business into numerous parts, each which is managed or created by someone else. business owner is therefore, more like a project manager. employees will be freelancers. effectively jumping into the bandwagon of more effective utilization of resource thanks to the internet - uberizing people!

i went on the put this app into a picture. containing all the pages, features, databases, links... you get the idea. then i looked for a developer. the first person i approached was my monster brother. i described the app and he went "it already exist"... to add salt to wound "20 years ago". type upwork into google. and there goes a dream....

having said that, a friend of mine - andrew - said (not in his exact words, but something to the effect of) - whatsapp came out after icq. facebook came out after friendster. and quoting his dad's favourite person in the world, "..follow your passion"...to take that advice, i will have to recover from this mini set back.
