Every now and then I wll come up with an idea that I am not sure if it's amazing or completely useless. I'd love your take on it.
I am an avid reader. I enjoy reading blogs, books and getting exposed to new ideas. I am a subscriber in probably too many e-mail lists.
As a result, I have come across some truly inspiring, unique and even life-changing content. I am talking about superstars like MJ DeMarco, Tim Ferriss and Mark Manson, but also relatively uknown people whose radical views on most topics poison their exposure to a wider audience.
I am thinking, what if I made a website that curated the best content I've come accross, and shared it with people that wouldn't normally find it? Surely people can get value out of receiving carefully selected, mind-blowing ideas instead of having to go through the landfill of the web themselves.
Model:
Get in touch with the content creators. Obtain their permission to reproduce their content. They gain more exposure and traffic, I gain amazing content.
Publish said content, in the form of a regularly updated website, or maybe a weekly e-mail.
Monetization? After some time and only if I get adequate traffic, maybe convert it to a cheap subscription based website, or insert affiliate links in the e-mail.

Specific questions:
- Am I trying to create a need where it doesn't exist?
- I will be using other people's value instead of creating my own. Is this gonna harm my success long term?
- Does this sound like something you would subscribe to?
