Laying the groundwork: what we need to do

So yesterday I announced the Year of Living Socially, a year in which I’m going to complete a project that’s been in the works for years — right here in public, while I get my social media act together. There’s an awful lot of groundwork to lay, so I thought I’d start by defining just what it is that we have to do.

Features of the YOLS application (whatever we decide to call it) [UPDATE: Hello, NoTooMi!]

The application we’re building in the Year Of Living Socially is basically the one I’ve been wishing I had for the last fifteen years or so. I try to keep up with all the goings-on in several topic areas, and it’s a full-time job I just can’t afford to take. The purpose of this application is first to gather all of that content in one place, and second to organize it in such a way that I can get all of the information quickly and painlessly.
