I stumbled across MindBloom today - "A life game" to improve my life, if you believe the spiel. So I created an account and logged in. To give you the gist, it's a tree with up to 7 leaves, you can choose the leaves you want, each represents an area of your life, career, spirituality, relationships, finances, health, lifestyle and creativity, you can set yourself tasks in each area, and the idea being that as you "grow" so does the tree. It's an attempt to build a life organiser. It's a novel idea, but it no doubt will suffer from what blogging does, apathy once the user has gotten through that initial enthusiasm. It does allow you to link to friends, I assume it will do this either via FB or your email address, depending on how you've signed up to it, not entirely sure though.
I've signed up to give it a go, I may actually get round to doing all those little things I keep putting aside, sticking them in a list and having a website/iPhone app nagging me may just be what I need to start being less lethargic and lazy.
Learning by doing, fear is overrated. No one cares if you make a pillock of yourself.
