When I first looked at this I got excited: A way to track my OWN goals for my OWN records, and help me with my own personal development.

When I found out it was another resume/CV/job board thing I just rolled my eyes and closed it. If I wanted that I would just use LinkedIn or Google+ (public) to talk about my bits and pieces.

That is how I am currently using it (http://kennedysgarage.com/status). I just wanted see if there were other uses for it. I think keeping it basic and to the original point might work the best. I do agree with you that we don't just need another Linkedin.

This is very cool - you should link to this on the main page you submitted; it's a very concrete example that I really enjoyed poking through.

I'm confused.

Is this simply a vague way of saying that you were hoping for something you could run locally, not a hosted service?

If not, I'm not sure what would stop you from doing exactly as you describe.

I think he meant that he would be more interested in using it as a general task tracker, rather than a CV add-on. Maybe a way to track any personal goals like weight-loss, excersize, personal projects, home renovation, etc. instead of just marketable things.
