Everyone likes to think that their project or solution meets a humongous need that everyone should be clamoring for; but it is far harder than you think. People become entrenched in the status-quo and will often resist change, even in the tech field where innovation is the watchword.

I have been working for years on a new kind of data management system. I was convinced that once I proved that it could organize files better than file systems and find things based off tags thousands of times faster; that people would adopt it. I was also convinced that if I could make it do relational table queries twice as fast as the competition, that it would likewise spur mass adoption.

In spite of making it do those things, it remains an uphill battle to get people to try it out.
