Summertime Web Design for 100 Minutes a Week (#wywof)

I'm in on this. I'm going to work on a personal website for this challenge.

I've tracked how I spend my time online using RescueTime, and it's amazing to look at see how much time I could be using to work on my own projects, instead of reading about other projects. 15 minutes per day would be a great step in the right direction.

For me however, it's more like While You Were On Hacker News ;)

In my experience, one big block of time is worth more than the equivalent in small blocks of time. Rarely do I find a task taking less than 15 minutes (especially in design, which I'm admittedly weak at), and I usually can't get into the "flow" at set times.

This is a great idea.

It reminds me of daf yomi in studying talmud, "a page a day".

A page a day is barely a burden, yet in 3 years you can have thoroughly read Misner's Gravitation, Programming Erlang 3 times over, and any number of grad-level textbooks. In 1 year, you will have read a good-sized textbook at almost no perceptible time cost, and with very high comprehension.

If he can give this a 43things style UI with publicly stated goals, integrate it with book lists and codebase repos worked on, it could be amazing.

I've started a Slinkset for this project as well. If you're participating, add your blog posts and such to it: http://wywof.slinkset.com/
