You're going about this the wrong way... YOU should be the customer. The next time you're doing something and think to yourself, hey I wish there was an app that would help me do X, you should BUILD IT. And if you don't have any needs right now, either wait a little bit until something occurs to you OR ask your significant other/friends if they have a need, and use that as the base for your work. I've scratched plenty of my own (and my wife's) itches in this manner. In her case, I've built a few things they actually use at her workplace, mostly to export data out of one app and into the format required for something else (reporting, another app, etc). They really appreciate the help and think I'm some kind of super hero as a result of a few simple data transforms, and it makes her look good too. Also, this same topic was discussed in the last 2-3 weeks, so check the list archives for suggestions from other people. Search for "photocrop" to find it. ;-) Wayne -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
