Developing Secret Powers: Creating New Problems

This may sound like an odd thing to want to develop, but being able to create new problems to solve will enhance your developing skills. Coming up with new ideas is also very useful in todays information economy.

So how does one go about creating new problems? Here are a few ideas:

  • Is there any piece of data or information which is difficult to markup or get hold of? Why not provide it?
  • Is there something you would love to be able to do on the computer but can’t find the software for? Why not build it?
  • Find something your language shouldn’t be able to do and then try and do it e.g Create a 3d game with JavaScript (but thats already been done)
