43 Things

If you were to write up a master list of everything you wanted to accomplish in life, how many items would you come up with? Five? Ten? How about forty-three? 43Things is a fun little web site that encourages you to list your 43 top goals and share them with 150-thousand pseudo strangers. Stuff like, “Visit London” and “Save someone’s life”…and let’s not forget “Learn the Napoleon Dynamite dance”. It keeps track of how many other people share your goals and lets you surf from list to list. For example, check out the list for “make a documentary film”.

I haven’t set up an account yet, but I do like the idea. The site also has a nice Cool Factor, since it’s implemented in my new favorite programming language Ruby using my new favorite web framework Ruby on Rails.
