Too Long; Didn't Read

Over the past few years, I have shipped over a <a href="http://jordangonen.com/" target="_blank">dozen web-apps</a> in front of the <a href="https://medium.com/@producthunt" data-anchor-type="2" data-user-id="b8b4445269d0" data-action-value="b8b4445269d0" data-action="show-user-card" data-action-type="hover" target="_blank">Product Hunt</a> community. While not every side-project has been a brilliant success, this exercise has taught me a ton about collaborating with friends, identifying market opportunities, talking to customers, and generating momentum around ideas.

I love building products that solve tangible problems.

Over the past few years, I have shipped over a dozen web-apps in front of the Product Hunt community. While not every side-project has been a brilliant success, this exercise has taught me a ton about collaborating with friends, identifying market opportunities, talking to customers, and generating momentum around ideas.

The latter — building momentum — I believe to be one of the most important parts of business (the most important being the actual product itself).

Navigating the rollercoaster and balancing emotions is always a challenge, but in practicing, over and over, I have become better at managing expectations and creating hype (both internally and externally).

A few months back, Product Hunt launched Upcoming.

Our mission has always been to surface awesome products and help makers connect with users. Recently we (semi-quietly) introduced a new feature called Upcoming to give the community a preview of tomorrow’s next 🔥 products, and makers an opportunity to build an audience and collect feedback before their public debut. 🚀

I have found this feature to be a great peek into the technology of tomorrow.

My friends and I are leveraging it to build Bookclub: a beautiful tool that helps you keep track of which books you read. You can get early access to it here 📚.

There are tons of projects I am excited about on Upcoming. Here are some of my favorite:
