It seems I can develop the app and test it but when it comes to actually deploying it and all that is involved. Building the icon, default image, posting to app store I seem to just bet bored. Does anyone else have this problem?

I wanted to be able to forward attachments from any email client and save it to Google Drive. So I created http://muledrive.com. All feedback is appreciated.
It's amazing how many reposes pg's post generated.
First off thank you for writing the article. It doesn't seem to me that Facebook or Google saw a huge market inflection and decided to create a company in the hopes if hitting it at the write time. To me it seems they were doing something PG mentioned which is building something they themselves wanted regardless of the market potential. It just so happens that by doing this they built something that a lot of other people also wanted and were able to execute it in such a way. Sometimes I feel "looking for an idea" is the wrong approach but instead viewing the world from behind a critical lens we will see problems that need to be solved. By solving them we feel our lives will be better and maybe that is enough to begin with and by solving these types of problems, once in a while we may just discover that others feel the same way.
funny i was just browsing for a new RSS reader.
Do you know of a list of companies that participated in Joystick Labs?
I had this idea when I received emails with attachments on my phone and wanted to save them. Let me know your thoughts and if you think it could be monetized.

Hit me up I am always open to working on projects.
did you ever find something that was satisfactory?
True true, maybe something like Zaarly or Task Rabbit would be true here?
what kind of tasks/jobs are you talking about? construction type jobs or software ...?
I would go for iPhone. Mostly because the tooling is easier, interface builder is cleaner. Android is great too but a litle more involved to get the same result. At least that is my 2 cents.

If you're like the rest of us you're glued to the television waiting for a verdict in the Casey Anthony trial. JuryWatch enables you to leave the television and receive a text message when the jury is done deliberating so you can run back to your televisions and watch the event. Can see it at: http://jurywatch.com

I created an app called Scan4Points which uses your barcode scanner to get nutritional information and calculate the WeightWatchers points. Actually my wife had "forced" me to make it. She said it was finally something I made that she could actually use.

Confered is a project I have been working to take the pain out of creating nice looking landing pages for your mobile app. This is often the last process in creating your mobile app and usually the most overlooked. Let me know what you think: http://confered.com
Is there anything your looking for specifically that would talk about specific topics?
Agreed just not clear what it is.
