MyDreamApp Round 1 Complete
September 23rd, 2006 by matt
The voting for Round 1 in MyDreamApp is complete. Two of my picks didn’t make it:
- Peter’s BubbleFish - very interesting idea, though I agree with one of the judges that it would be very difficult to implement - gathering data from many different sources (language translation, wikipedia, google, etc.) quick enough to pop up a window before a user loses interest. I thought it may make it through based on the potential, but nope.
- Joe’s Puppet Constructor - now I really think this would be something people would use. It has nothing to do with productivity - quite the opposite. The idea is that you can create a graphical puppet and then make it do stuff. I think if you somehow added a peer-to-peer or multi-session type of experience this would be a really fun time-waster: having your puppet play / dance / fight with other people’s puppets online. Probably also difficult to implement and would require a lot of streamlined animation coding.
My other 4 picks made it past the first round and there are a lot of interesting ideas. Congrats to Peter and Joe for making it to the top 24.
