Sometimes, side projects find me. When they don't, I don't particularly go looking for them.
That is, you're just going about your business, and an idea comes (or you keep running into a need, and figure out a way to address it), and you pretty much can't not chase it. Now you have a side project, one you actually care about doing.
Don't do a side project just to do a side project. Do it because you really want to - almost because you have to.
