For some reason non-tech people think desktop applications are always hard to create, and web sites are always simple.

You can extend that to apps too. I can't count the number of items friends/family have had "great" ideas for apps that we could split the profit on.

It wasn't that long ago that everyone had a 13 year old nephew that made websites. Also it is easier to create a very simple website than to create a very simple desktop app, since a simple website doesn't really do anything. There's really no equivalent desktop app to the Geocities type websites.
