What I have found, and have fully tested for me, is that unless you have total focus, you waste all you put into it, even if you have a finished product yet no more desire to build user base. As I am not a skilled programmer, I pay for the services most necessary for successful 2.0 projects, and as a result, am constantly in flux with my mind (chasing the multi-million idea) and my guaranteed reality, get the next million on what we do best. My wife, yeah I consult business with her - at least major outflows - and I have been discussing 10% of positive cash flow be designated to 1 - yes, just 1 - of these great ideas and see if it comes to fruition or we blow more thousands first. I want to hit one... The good side right now is, the search ad space is hot, so the luxury of minor success - aka failure - on this project does not sink the ship. Anyway, any great 2.0 projects that have great programmers, designers, business people on board and can handle another, find me. Interest is high - but it has to be that 1...for that is the current limit.
