So I found Steve Pavlina site few months ago and it changed the way I thought about many things after reading tons of his articles. Many of which were about setting goals.

Short story, I got motivated to create a website where users set goals in a social networking environment. I thought i would share this with everyone. Do you think this is a good way to set goals and accomplish them?

This is really cool

It gives me more ideas about my own goals after seeing someone else's goals and if they have accomplished them

Sounds interesting, andy.

Just wondering what kind of platform are you using for your social networking environment? Is it a forum or a online goal tracker kinda facility?

Some sample sites you might want to check :
Joesgoal.com
Goalsetting1.com

Let me know cos I'll be interested to know and blog about it! Cheers

Hi Ellesse,

I developed the site 100% myself, meaning all the backend code and design, using Ruby on Rails (Web Development framework).

So, no forums were used nor any goal tracker facility.

I would appreciate it if you do write about it! I think social networking and goal setting is an interesting topic if you can add more thoughts to it.

Sure, Andy. I'll take a look and feature it on my blog if it's good

Have you seen seen 43 Things? I just noticed it is quite similar in layout.
