From concept to launch in 24 hours

I thought I was pretty quick about getting sites built and launched, but I must bow to the master.

Yesterday Kyle Bragger (who also built Forrst), took a concept and launched a site in just 24 hours. He posted this blog post about Facto today.

Facto is a fun way for you to share facts about yourself with friends or anyone on the internet. It is a simple idea beautifully executed.

It sounds like Kyle had a great time building Facto, and thinks you should build one of your ideas too. As Kyle says:

There’s nothing more fulfilling than creating something out of nothing, and in my opinion there is no better time to transform yourself into someone who can produce something from a mere idea. It doesn’t have to be perfect, or even refined. The ability to create a working prototype of an idea is invaluable. It’s not a mockup, it’s not a powerpoint deck, it’s a real, living, breathing thing that real users can interact with now. If you’re a developer or designer but lacking in the opposite discipline, what are you waiting for? You could be hacking on a cool idea as we speak. If you’re a business guy/woman, or “ideas person”, why spend any more time relying on other people** to build your ideas?

Now back to my ideas, not sure I can do any of them in just 24 hours, so I might have to come up with something else!
