Have we run out of problems?
Lately I have been trying to fathom a problem that software could fix, automate or even replace humans all together. Every time I get that idea or "ah ha!", moment I am finding solutions to those problems already. Might I add really good solutions that sometimes mimic my own or blow it out of the water.
I pose this question. What problems do you face on a daily bases that you wish a new app could solve or make easier? Preferably something without an answer already.
I'm not trying to start the next billion dollar startup. I am just curious to what people beyond myself see as frustrating or troublesome in a day and age who's slogan is "there's an app for that". Here's a problem for you:
How do you make it easy to find a close by doctor or specialist and make an appointment? I had to make a Saturday appointment and it took me about 12 phone calls to find a dermatologists that come in on Saturdays. So the current process: search via Google Maps, go to local (ugly) websites, manual calling... Maybe there is an app for that, didn't bother looking for that... ZocDoc? Yeah ZocDoc is best for that. The space we live it -- whether it be San Francisco and the Bay Area, or life as a 20-something male -- is pretty techified. Go hang out in Louisiana if you're looking for ideas :)
