First of all, sorry if I went into wrong section, because most of my time I've been in PHP Code section and I don't know where to post my request.
I've stopped programming PHP for a month, i think, tried to learn C++. Then I decided that PHP is better for me. It's easier and also powerful language.
I want to start a PHP project. Something that would be useful and reasonable for many or some people. It shouldn't be too hard, as I don't have many experience with PHP (6-9 months, i think), but it should be challenging. I believe that many programmers learn while they create. I also want to learn, but I want to learn in fun way. Reading books all the time is quite boring for me and sometimes not so efficient... So now I'm looking for project ideas to create. There are many CMS, Shopping Carts and similar things, so I don't want to create what has been created professionally several times. I thought of a Web Game, but they take very long time to create and I don't want to spend full year on one project. I saw one idea about creating a website which would keep my region's or country's people's contact addresses, info about apartments, but there's already a phone book with all that info, which was sent to everyone for free.
Also, maybe I should mention or not, I'm 16 years old and I have school, so this programming project would be for my free time. I should get plenty of that
I hope someone can come up with some idea. I'll also be looking for them myself of course
Thanks for ANY ideas.
