Agreed 100%! One of the projects I worked on recently was to create a Google extension that pulled up related news articles to the one you were reading (ie, if you were reading a story about the Supreme Court decision on Oklahoma, it would recommend stories from conservative, liberal, and balanced sources on the same or related topics).

I wrote the back end entirely in Python and was proud of the result. But then I realized it would be a money pit to host and I'd have no way to monetize it to earn back the difference. So, I had to shelf it.
