http://schoolholidays.deals/ A UK-based flight deals service aimed specifically at parents who can only travel during term-time. Having this issue myself now with two children whereby flight prices double going into school holiday season, I have always wanted some kind of service which alerts me of good deals. I still have a long way to refining the actual product, but trying to fit the development around work commit…

wellbody.me -> everyone that does some sort of fitness knows that its more than just going to the gym. its also nutrition, mobility, recovery, and mindfulness. we blend all these topics into a progression system but simplify it into just 3 daily actions. we integrate with your wearables so all you have to do is connect and your system is ready!

I do think a decent amount of games can be subsumed under this paradigm but it requires careful design to a necessary and sufficient protocol. Of course, whether the game itself is fun is a different story, but I think it can be made fun.

I just HATE the invitation-and-coordination game. If someone invites me and I don't want to go, I hate having to come up with a socially acceptable excuse.
