I think the problem for a lot of people is coming up with that initial idea, that spark to get things moving. It's really difficult, I find, to come up with something that hasn't already been done before or is already better than what's in my head. I hope to reach your point some day, heh.

There were plenty of Twitter tools that'd let you schedule tweets before TweetingMachine was developed. If you have competition, it means there's money in that space :)
