This article describes the design, development and eventual failure of an educational application, College Conductor. There are some good lessons here. Especially this: "As developers and technologists, many of us enjoy steeping in the technology purely for the sake of it.

While that's personally useful, especially if you need to grow your skills, staying in that space is not helping others."
