Keeping track of your ideas

This is the fourth post in “5 business ideas in 5 days” series.

(4) An application to keep track of your ideas and things you learn.

It is similar to a messaging platform or a note-taking application, but focused on recording ideas and things people learn.

Encouraging users to record and share only brief ideas.

Other users can save or re-post it.

Could work for specific topics/groups, otherwise will become too cluttered with random messages.

Students can share things they learned in the course and record follow-up ideas.

There are a lot of note-taking applications, but they all work as generic productivity tools, and not as a collection of ideas on a specific topic, shared with other people.

It is better to design it as a set of small communities, and not as a social network.
