I came across a write up of Beeminder.com and gave it a try. This is a tool I just need to share.

BeeMinder (Sounds like Reminder) is really a service that helps you track data. From the site: "BeeMinder tracks your progress towards your goals."
In my trial, I set up a goal of one pound of weight loss per week until Christmas. Yes, I know that I am obese - but look - I'm making progress with Beeminder's help. Here is my current chart:
The "Yellow Brick Road" describes my goal with upper and lower controls. In this case, the lower control doesn't really come into play, but if I go over the top of the yellow brick road - then I've broken my commitment.
I believe that projects are everywhere, ubiquitous, and that it is in the thousands of projects I see everyday that I can have the greatest impact. I work to be a constant source of positive reinforcement and encouragement to everyone working on projects, posting six days a week to share good news, good thoughts, and great projects with my project peers.
