It has already been said, but a good start to finding problems you want to solve is by looking at problems you experience. Say, for example, you get annoyed with navigating different unique web pages trying to look for one piece of information(e.g. a contact phone number) buried in directories that have different names. You could try to solve that problem by creating a web crawler whose purpose is to find that piece of information on unique web pages that are in the same industry to create for people who don't want to experience that same navigational hell that you did.

I think the essence of problem solving is not wanting your peers to have to experience the same bullshit that you do.
