I've always kicked around the idea of selling Tubalr, if anyone's interested shoot me an email(cjstewart88@gmail.com with an offer. - URL: http://www.tubalr.com - Age: 3 1/2 years - Cost to run: $9 - Registered Users: 28,009 - It's been wrote about on sites like mashable, techcrunch, fast company, the next web, etc. .. it's been on the front page of hackernews and reddit. Google for "tubalr" to read around the web. -…

I feel this could be easily monetized, if you don't get a sale you should look into it for sure. iTunes have an affiliate system, and they have an API endpoint for search. You could simply have some links to purchase the latest album of the currently playing artists / just played artists etc.

I maintain the site http://sideprojectors.com Would love to hear your comments & feedback on how things can be improved to help you sell your side projects. Personally, it's been quite rewarding to see people exchanging messages and actually buy & sell side projects.

Is it for sale?

Just sent you an email. Curious to know what kind of CMS you're using as I'm working on a similar project.

I created a real-time communication platform for controlling home-automation and connected devices. Allows for control from anywhere with web access, very little set up on the "client" side. I tried to reverse engineer the way Nest Thermostat works (communication and syncing settings wise). I succeeded and it works.

First test project: Droplet, www.dropletlabs.com

kittyroulette.com + kittehroulette.com

Chat roulette for cat videos... Next Kitty!

Not currently live... No revenue... launched it on April 1, 2010 when news about ChatRoulette was all over the place. It went pretty viral and enjoyed a nice long tail of traffic. Took it down recently to switch hosts, and never finished...
