What I Was Doing

I collected my previous Now pages here on this page. After a Now page is archived, it becomes a part of this blog, just another story, among many others.

They live on their separate page, because they’re mostly short and historical.

What’s This ‘Now’ Page?

#

This page is inspired by a good idea from Derek Sivers.

A website with a link that says ‘now’ goes to a page that tells you what this person is focused on at this point in their life.

Think of what you’d tell a friend you hadn’t seen in a year.

“Any time I’m in something that kind of feels useful or fun, but isn’t clearly aligned with my bigger goals, I pull up my now page and ask ‘Is it on there? Should I add it?’ Most of the time the answer is no, and I move on. Sometimes it’s yes, and when it is, at least it’s an intentional priority shift.” — Gregory Brown

I’ve been writing down what I’m up to at my previous generations of blogs

• livejournal,
• blogspot,
• WordPress,
• Social Networks,

and it was mostly an updatable About page.

I like the idea of NowNowNow, so I extracted this info for the sake of history.

I’m planning to keep the About page mostly static, and Now page dynamic.

Also, checkout my news project, it has a similar vibe, but a slightly different goal and meaning.

• You can subscribe to it, it’s the only project I won’t post often. I think a couple of super short news a month at best. I’m not too newsworthy, you know.
