As a long-time blogger with a decent readership, I felt the need to post on a regular basis (to keep my blog active and readers happy). But coming up with stuff to blog about always proved to be a challenge. I did not want to blog about stuff that everyone else was talking about ("echo chamber" as bloggers like to call it) and I wanted to write about stuff my readers would enjoy and actually read/comment on. Coming up with unique topics is not easy.

The idea for a user-generated content suggestion tool (as i called it back then) was born. Fast-forward a few years and you have http://Skribit.com, the startup I'm working on, with the slogan "Cure Writer's Block" :-)

In general - most of my ideas that I work on come from frustrations I have in my daily life.
