I have like 2-3 ideas a day for new articles or products, inspired after reading articles or encountering a difficulty in my job. Nothing special here, all HNers will relate. Of course, many of these ideas may be actually bad or really bad, although without trying you might never now.
What I do, though, is writing them down, and perhaps 1 out of 100 ends up being successfully implemented by someone else (unrelated to me). Again, nothing special here.
Is there any way to leverage these ideas, provided you don’t have time to execute them? Is there any feasible way to externalize their development? Assuming you are not Google and can not afford funding a Google X-like lab.
Some possibilities I can think of at the moment is either becoming a professor and taking lots of interns, or funding a small startup with a bunch of developers.
