  1. igrowwegrow.com - compare your growing with others Google this
  2. eatmyrushes.com - the home of unused film footage Google this
  3. thissongsucks.com - heard bad music? Tell us Google this
  4. gathermyharvest.com - share my allotment bounty Google this
  5. runtothetree.com - start running, keep running Google this

1. igrowwegrow.com – There are hundreds of gardening blogs. I’d like a social media site where you can follow users or follow crops. For example: ‘click here to follow courgettes’

2. eatmyrushes.com – I have leftover generic footage from my film-making days (including some cool b/w stop-frame Super 8 stuff). Oh for a site where I can dump it and others can go use it. Actually I’m sure I can use Vimeo or others for that but hey, ‘eatmyrushes.com’, what a cool url.

3. thissongsucks.com – In the trawl for new music talent what happens to the crap that gets listened to in the meantime. Found new crap music? Let’s hear about it. I’m thinking of the musical equivelant to the Razzies (the alt oscars that have awards for bad movies)

4. gathermyharvest.com – At some point every allotment holder has more stuff than they need on their plot. Come help me gather my goodies and you can take home a bag of spuds for yourself. Actually, this is another idea for which I just like the url.

5. runtothetree.com – When I started running I had a ‘tree’ I would run to as a marker. As I got better I ran to the next ‘tree’ and the next etc. etc.(it was actually canal bridges but tree sounds better). This is a personal goal-setting site for beginner runners.

All these crap ideas are copyright Dave Harte by the way although given I haven’t bagged the URLs for them (all are still available at time of writing) I can’t be that seriuous so you’re welcome to them.

You’re onto something with a couple of those. You should have the same sorts of conversations with Stef that I’ve been having that led to this site and I So Wish.

When I moved to the middle of nowhere and started growing veg a few months ago I wanted a site just like igrowwegrow.com and I couldn’t believe it when I found that it doesn’t exist. Like that open source cookbook site but for gardening. The problem with gardeners is they spend too much time outdoors and not enough writing Pearl scripts.
