I usually like to check websites like KillerStartups.com and various webmaster forums to see what the newest ideas are out there. What amazes me is the number of people who are trying to find a niche within a niche. While I wouldn’t call this a bad idea in general, there are a lot of circumstances where it is a bad idea. For example, lots of people are trying to start video websites like YouTube except for a certain category of videos. Even if your website is flawless, why would anybody use your website when all they have to do is search YouTube for that particular kind of video? Unless the niche you’re going for is huge and you feel you can provide that niche with a more “feature-rich” website than I would suggest you either go for the general niche or find a unique niche that nobody is using.
