Kevin, you should probably search HN for "rate" (from "rate my ...") and for "show" (from "Show HN: ...") to discover recent projects. Also, if you could be a bit more clear on your definition of "side project" versus front, back, top, bottom or any other type of project, it might prove helpful (i.e. are you looking for startup projects? hobby projects? ...).

View on HN

thanks jcr, will do.

As opposed to a front project or a back project, a side project is one that someone works on outside of their main job/project. A main job/project is one that someone puts most of their time into.

Does this help?

Not really. I should have been more clear rather than try to be humorous. With a name like BostInnovation (and no url for your site?), it makes me wonder what kinds of innovations you're looking for?

Some of the people working on "projects" here on HN do it full time (in addition to doing other full time / paid work), and what they are doing is innovative. Some of the good stuff may not quite qualify as a "side project," well, at least it might not in the eyes of the people doing them.

good points, jcr. check my edits on the original post
