This is a special day for us (you, me and everyone else who read this blog). For those who doesn’t know it, JoeGoals is a web application aimed to help you in your way to become a more productive person, in every aspect of your life. Today, on the joe goals blog I saw a post that made my day more happy than what it was planned to be. Joe Goals passed the 10,000 registered users; that’s amazing guys!
But there is more; it seems that all started when Ian Smith the founder of Joe Goals saw one of my posts about the system that Ben Franklin used grow as a person in life; the famous list of 13 Virtues; the post was called Gain More Virtues, by Benjamin Franklin. Here is a small part of the interview Matt Pressnall from EnjoyYourDigital Life did to Ian:
MP: What does Ben Franklin have to do with your Web 2.0 application?
Ian: A while back I saw a blog post talking about how Ben Franklin developed and tracked a list of 13 Virtues in his effort to improve himself. He used a pen to track his daily progress on a pad of paper he had printed up for himself. I thought the grid format was innovative and I soon figured out a way to incorporate it into my idea for a goal tracking application. A number of people even use Joe’s Goals to track Ben Franklin’s original 13 Virtues.
So, here is to JoeGoals! I hope you guys get 10,000 more registered users in the next couple of months!
