LOL. Thanks a lot. Building the project the way you suggested would be great, but I have seen that managing outsource work is very difficult, and am not sure if I am good at that.
Also, in the process of building the project, I want to improve my skill sets. I do plan to do some part of works through freelancers.
Thanks! I though of that, but my team is in a state that if I plan to take leave, they'll hire someone immediately and they may not take me back later as my position will be filled. Its not a big company.
However, if I decide to quit for personal project, I will start with asking for leave or part time work. That was the plan. Quitting is kinda the last option.
This will be a free website and open for all, so targeting anyone specific is not possible. May be I can talk to friends/family and check whether it sounds like something they want to use.
Thanks a lot! These suggestions are really helpful, and am glad to get some specific direction!
About validating my idea, I am not a person who follows the start up news a lot, so, I may be wrong, but is it okay to share a idea before building it? What if someone hears my idea and build it before I do? I am uncomfortable with this, or am I missing something here?
If you are not comfortable sharing your idea online, I would advise to share it to potential customers, not friends and family. F&F are biased and will tend to give positive feedback. You need feedback from people that are willing to PAY or USE your product, complete strangers.
