Seems like every time I have a good idea, I can go Google up someone who’s already had it.
On the one hand, it sucks to not be original. On the other hand, I probably wouldn’t trust my idea unless someone else had it — so the act of discovering prior-art actually legitimizes my idea.
It would be nice to invent something, but it’s also nice to know that I’m not, actually, crazy.
I feel your pain/affirmation. Everytime I have a great, no epic, idea it seems that someone has already listed the pros and cons. IE and PC in my car with all the cool peripherials… of course now there is a whole website dedicated to it. lol oh well good luck have fun!
