It's not just SaaS or web based products that fall into this category. There are plenty of applications and systems that run stand-alone on a disconnected computer that can add real value and may take many years to develop for a sole engineer.
I have a data management system that I have been working on for many years. It is core technology that could eventually be used in a SaaS or web based model, but for now it runs on a single computer with no dependencies to the Internet (other than to download the beta software at https://www.Didgets.com).
Many of the features (file system imports, database tables, quick analytics, logging framework, indexing service, etc.) have come about one weekend or a series of evenings at a time.
Congrats to Matt for sticking with it for so long.
