Chief 30 Report post Posted July 27, 2008 some of you may know that i am learning VB and that i made a web browser. well, i jsut tried to update it and i got way ahead of myself. i tried the following: 10tab capabilities, PDF reader, Textpad, and more... i can easilly do these its just that when i got about halfway into it, i decided to quit because there is no practical use for those... i mean, IE and FF can do all that (mostly). So, im scrapping my web browser (not forever, i hope to update soon but a little simple first) and moving on. but, i want some ideas on good practical applications that i should make. i coiuld easiily whip up a text-editor thing but why? theres like millions so i dont see why but i could whip other things up too... what would you guys think would be a cool practical thing for me to make?

RMXPirate 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2008 I know there are many things out there like that but its a sense of hey im going to get practice out of making these etc... I say make the web browser the text editor whatever you want just be creative and make it original! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chief 30 Report post Posted July 29, 2008 poo... but i still would like ideas on some other things to make... and pirate, i think i may have found out how to make a scrive online... im not exactly sure but maybe you could use a web presentation thing... i dont know what its called cuz i dont have the name in front of me... but, its more confusing. it took me about an hour just to figure out how to add an image... and im not exactly how it works but maybe its a file for online? i dunno...

Marked 197 Report post Posted August 1, 2008 I'd say stick with the web browser. You say that you gave up on it because of FF and IE being able to do the same things. If that's the case you're going to have a really tough creating something. Sure you could come up with something new that no one's thought of but thats not going to an easy task. Think about all the people in the world who do this kind of thing. I have no idea how many, but you know, im sure there's heaps. Anyway, my point is that you're giving up on your browser for the wrong reasons. Creating your web browser is great practice for your future creations and future commercial creations.
