Somewhat lame question, but when somebody talks about their 'weekend project', do they mean: 1) A project I started and launched in a single weekend
2) A project that I worked in my free time (aka weekends)
3) Something else. I've done some small side projects in my spare time, but have never been able to do something start to finish in a single weekend. Maybe my weekends are too busy or my projects too large. |

By that I mean that I think people often mean both. Some projects are obviously hackathon-like projects that were done in (something close to) a single weekend.
Others probably took on the order of 4 days to a few weeks cobbled together over weekends. I worked on http://lifestyle.io/ for probably about 5 days total before launching it, and I've given it additional love since.
I wouldn't get hung up on what you can get done in a weekend anyway. Focus on creating real value with what you do if you're intending to profit. (Hint: many of these weekend projects forget that part entirely!) If you just want to have fun, then you definitely don't need to worry about timescales.
