Thanks, I signed up. I am working on a project for generating CSS sprites in the browser without any file uploads.

I'm a little confused about what exactly I share with the emails. It says there will be three links, and I click on one that records my progress. Are these goals I set up myself? Am I sharing this with anybody who wants to see it, or is it just something to use to stay motivated as an individual? I am definitely interested to see how it works.



The emails just ask you if you're on track for launch at the end of the month. It's hard to get any more specific than that since everyone is doing something completely different and will be at different places.

That data will be surfaced to you in every email, so you'll see your streak of making positive daily progress and hopefully that'll keep you motivated. In the next week or so, we'll offer you the option of declaring what your project is and making those progress updates public, so people can help keep each other motivated. Just working out a few issues with that feature though...

We hope you enjoy it, and email me at ryan at 21times dot org if you have any questions or problems.
