Great idea! Kind of like a New Years resolution, but with an acountability factor?

I like the other Greg's comment. That wasn't me, was it?

Anyway, I made a /now page too. Good for reflection, imo.

Thanks!!!! Great idea

One could try being so wholly engaged in actually DOING what one was doing (now), that it would be obvious to those asking what that 'doing' was. Also - those who are busy 'doing' are commonly too mobile, too enthused, too 'in the moment' to be got at by those wishing to know? 'Sounds hornery..? Don't mean to be.... but if you have time to create a page, are you really 'doing' the thing you're supposedly busy 'doing'?

Cool idea!

Love it! Here's mine:

This is a brilliant idea. Here's mine:

http://calvincorreli.com/now/

Not sure this is a good idea. Someone with an opportunity may look at it and never offer because, well, he's too busy. I want to always leave the door open.

Hello Derek - always inspiring, thank you.

Here's my /now page

http://www.mikeechlin.com/now/

Very cool. It inspired me to set a page up right now. Check it out.

Great idea, jumped on that straight away:

Its intereting idea. At first you think its cheap and not too much different think but after its seems simple, efficiency, and usefull. I love it also And its open to improvement. You now who dont need to improvement. ALL BLACKS.

The best part about brilliant ideas is they apply to so many situations. :)

Just added (okay just started to add) a /now page. http://xxaxx.com/now

Wanted to share a fun trick for google search

If you'd like to search for others participating in the /now trend try a google search of the following form.

".com/now" OR ".org/now"

You'll have to add an expression for any favorite domain extensions. Still poking around looking for a more inclusive search formula (other than OR-ing every single extesion)
Interesting tip! I didn't know you could Google for partial URLs like that. Thanks Claude! — Derek

I love it, Derek. :D

Thank you so much.

I'm working on using MANY more Enlightened No's these days... just finished reading Jeff Olson's The Slight Edge, and am onto The War of Art by Steven Pressfield... so much support for people wanting to reach their full potential. It means a lot to hear more stories of that commitment and dedication to Self.

As always, you are an inspiration. xo.

I don't think there's much of anybody gives a hoot what the hell I'm doin' 'ceptin' my dog...
☺ — Derek

Love it!

Now: I notice acting in the past (or the future) is quite a challenge. Also, I notice that speaking and writing in Subejct-Verb-Object-present tense tends to clarify my thinking, keeping action in the now, instead of the nonexistent future and/or past. Nice one Derek.

Always an inspiration Derek! Thank you!

I think this is a fantastic idea - thank you for sharing.

Great idea Derek!!

Derek!

What happened with the biking? When I think about you I imagine you with a bicycle below, like a "satyr" :), but that's not in your /now page.
Living in Wellington New Zealand now, which is all winding roads with no bike lanes. After my dear friend was killed on his bike, I avoid sharing the road with cars. So, no biking lately. — Derek

Woo! http://trailofsparks.org/now/

/now there's a great idea

Here's my now page! Great idea.

http://nickswan.net/now/

This is a truly great idea, Derek. The biggest challenge I find these days is staying focused on one thing at a time, since I am embedded in so many different projects simultaneously, and cherish my connectedness to others.

This gives me a shortcut. Thanks for the inspiration.

Great idea!

Great idea! Here's my /now page: http://zoia.org/now

http://jodywhitesides.com/now

Now comes the task of remembering to actually update a /now page...

Brilliant! Here's mine:

http://www.nathanlustig.com/now/

Thanks Derek..I took a moment and looked at now links of the 8 people listed above. I learned something new..as always Derek..
I was a customer/artist on CDbaby back in 2000 and followed you off and on and now check in more when i get my e mail update. Thanks Derek, with all the crap on the net it is refreshing to come back to you and see the good out there. To think clearly..
Getting my site re organized is on my now list.. i pay for the hosting and it sits there. i am a writer musician and I am not using the tools to put my ideas out there. Focus.. but as Garrick pointed out we only have about 6 hours a day for focused energy to complete tasks outside of the the daily living, and if you are the person who keeps up the house, traditionally the woman, you have even less time for work, craft, art and community. It is all so very existential...

OK, sounds like funny idea.

http://stryjski.net/now/

(in Polish like the rest of the page)

http://discussionsoftheway.tumblr.com/now

love this, Thanks for sharing a great idea!

BRILLANT! I have never felt so powerful being a follower before - just look what you have started a long time ago, I'm sure that you will never truly know how many followers that you have or how many life's "THE Derek Sivers Movement" has positively touched. THANK YOU!

I like. Here's mine:
http://www.swaine.com/wordpress/now/

Awesome I am adding a now page tonight! Thanks D!

This is such a good idea and so simple I believe it should be a required page on all personal sites

http://www.paulksaunders.com/now

Content will be added this weekend

It's the first time I'm hearing about a Now page. It's a great idea and I will create one later today!

An excellent idea!

http://busyweekends.com/now/

Love this idea. Just added one to my site as well!

Thanks Gregory Brown and Derek for the idea: http://www.alexjerez.net/now

Ha! Mine would say: "Finally creating my own website to sell my music!" I better get cracking on that!! Then I can post my ongoing other activities.

Great idea! I will add it to my todo list, and will post the link once completed!

Amazing post!

http://saurabh.pro/now/

Wonderful idea!

Just tossed something together:

http://Duncan.co/now

Tada!

http://www.cedricwinterwolf.com/now/

What's great about writing out the NOW priorities, is that it helps me to get crystal clear on what I should be doing. (It's so easy to get distracted!)

Thanks for the inspiration, here's my NOW page: http://mariabrophy.com/now

Wonderful Idea! I made mine http://matthewkirk.com/now/

I like it :)

I haven't done a /now one yet, but I have created a simple one-pager on "what I do" that seems to help as well:

http://jmoney.biz/

I'll consider adding a /now too!

Happy to be another dancer on the hill!

http://alfredmegally.com/now/

Cheers from Colombia, Derek!

http://c-4a.org/about-c4a/now-what-are-working-on/

Trying it out on our website--sort of a blog substitute. I added "what are we working on?" because "now" seemed like it would be ambiguous to our constituency.

http://dreallday.com/NOW/

I think this is a brilliant idea, but, right now the personal web site is not at the top have of the list. So, in the spirit of saying 'No', I am adding to the list, but maintaining focus on what is at the top.

Awfully tempted, but trying to maintain focus....

Love this idea, it really focuses the priorities - http://wallethacks.com/now/

Cool idea

Here's my /now page http://edicoespqp.blogs.sapo.pt/the-now-page-movement-3799481

ideas just keep on coming!!!…the only way to know if they work is to do 'em and see what happens …then you know!

Great idea! Here's mine:

http://www.linkedin-makeover.com/now/

I think it's brilliant. It makes perfect sense, and it's putting technology to work for you, as it should. Of course, greatness is born out of simplicity and practicality and these are things you're a master of, Derek

Great idea. I have a Dutch version now :)
http://ernohannink.nl/now/

Mr. Sivers, this is great. Shout out to Greg 2 for propelling the movement.

http://www.cellojoe.com/p/now.html

I have my blog on blogger so I don't know how to make the address CelloJoe.com/now but I put it up there.

I basically copied your page Derek and changed the words for me. Thanks for the idea and the template!!!

I love this! I just posted my own:

https://pjrvs.com/now

I like it for you and others who attract a lot of curious admirers. For the average person (define that how you like) social media takes care of what's happening now. For myself, 95%of the time, people I'd like to get an email reply from won't do so. (And that's one of the reasons I admire you). So, a now page for me will get even less attention than the 15 people who liked my latest (and greatest) Instagram photo.

http://www.geirman.com/now/

Love it Derek!

Here is mine: http://travishellstrom.com/now

http://frankieflowersmusic.com/now/

I'm in. Great idea. I always struggle with not knowing how to maintain state with what I am working on currently. This should help:

http://overthink.io/now

Yes!

http://jenniferashton.ca/WP/links-2/

http://www.alexstrick.com/now is my /now page.

This is a great idea and I agree that it's instructive to write these things down so as to get some clarity on current/ongoing projects.

This is so great! I did mine in 5 mins:

http://superspicymedia.com/now/

This is kind of a smooth way to kill connections with people and turn it into more of a passive observer relationship!

Couldn't afford to keep the site name "on my easel".

This will do nicely,

thanks!

Thanks for the inspiration ... I not only created a now page http://nupita.de/now.html - I also updated the rest of my primitive website while I was already there ;) Let's see how long this page will stay up-to-date and if people will ask me about it.

Love it. I'd been doing a "light" version of this on my homepage, but I now I have a dedicated page:

http://www.blakeboles.com/now/

Saw you tweet this earlier today and immediately started work on it... count me in!

http://kohanikin.com/now

I love how it encourages you to decide whether these really are the 5 things you want to be doing. I'm fairly happy with my list, but I still think I can tweak my priorities a bit further!

Good way to keep myself honest. Thanks!

Love this idea so much I dropped everything else and created my own Now page. http://christophersherrod.com/now/

http://sendaiben.org/now

As always, your ideas are beyond scope. Who would have thought such simplicity could do so much?

http://claude.works/now

Love it. One question, though: many people have a "News" page on their personal websites, is the "Now" proposal a replacement for the oddly impersonal/presumptuous idea of a person's "News", or something to go alongside it?
Good question! The difference is that /news is for happenings and updates (“What's new?”), but /now is meant to be a summary of the whole. (“Where are you at in this stage of your life? What are you focused on?”) — Derek

Thanks for the idea. I'm pretty sure no one on the internet has ever asked what I'm up to, but hey, now I know...

https://luxagraf.net/now

Love the idea of the Now page, here's mine:

Thanks for this Derek. Here's mine:

http://www.seansharp.org/now

This is a great idea – I've been looking for some way to convey this and you've inspired me to do with this page (just like you did with your WDS talk this year).

http://www.mikevardy.com/now

Thanks!

I see the value in this, but, I also know that if I say "I'm doing this" just declaring that somehow makes me slow up or stop doing it for days or weeks. I would rather keep my progress to myself and move forward ... keep my steam up as it were.
You might like /zipit ☺ — Derek

I'm now dancing with you and Gregory :)

I love your brilliant ideas Derek. Here's my page:
http://quentinpain.com/now/

Just an opinion. The music business is a competitive place. In that regard I, personally, don't feel it's a good idea to proclaim to the world what I am doing or not doing. There are some that feel if they announce to the world they are going to do something - like losing weight for instance - it holds them accountable. I can see that. For me, I'm results oriented and would much rather (and have) lost weight first and then the rest of the world (around me) noticed what I actually accomplished - rather than talk about it before any results have taken place. With the music world being so competitive I don't want to give away sensitive ideas to others. Some of them may be stolen. I would rather tell everyone what I have been working on (past tense) once I've finished, created, copyrighted, trademarked, etc. Then I feel it's safe to announce to the world what I - have been - up to. Thoughts?

Done : http://fabriq.fm/now/

I am now "nowed" ;)

http://bitonator.github.io/now/

I like this idea. It keeps me focused, allows my fans to keep in touch with my current work, and lets new followers find out more about me.

http://www.jdroth.com/now/

Interesting idea, Derek. At first I didn't feel much difference between 'now' and 'news' and FAQ'. But brainstorming helped and I just joined the 'now' crowd:

http://gilles-snowcat.com/gilles-snowcat-now.html

Gilles

Thanks Derek, love your work, had to do it straight away.

Here is my /now page

http://wfa.life/now/

Good one!!

Definitely likin' this idea, and so I've made my own, too:

http://www.andersensilva.com/now

I'll do a "now" later. (get it?) lol

Thanks for the invite Derek.

I'm an Indie fighting for Top 40 with my song "New Revolution". Maybe you can guess my priorities?

I'm the #2 Indie on US radio right now (but have 75 label artists ahead of me to #1 overall)

http://meresha.com/now

I like it! I'm just about to update my website, and will consider adding a Now page - with Now navigation at the top. Cheers for a great idea, Derek.

I love the idea! Thanks for that.

I added one in... sorry... German. Just because I don´t really need an english one at the moment.

http://petra-wille.de/now/

Great idea but wondering because it's a static page, how do you do updates? Strike-throughs on previous updates or just delete old 'nows' or add newest to the top of the ever growing list?
Am considering this for sure.
I just erase and replace the old with the current. No need for timelines and history. — Derek

A very good idea! And not your first.

You are so organized... I need to follow in your footsteps for a few days and see how you do it. Love the now page idea and will implement it and see if that gives me more focus on the "now". That would be good.

Once again thank you Derek!

Flexing my No Explanation for the No Muscles now, but I can see how this makes the necessary No's easier!

Can see too it might make a good accountability tool for those times when public promises are motivating.

Thanks Derek!

Sounds like a great idea - unless - I have to pay $125.00 every time I change it. I have to pay my webmaster for an hour every time.
I wish it was easy. I do need to change my host. Any suggesting who I can switch to make it easy? I'm ready to change.

For a site like yours, I recommend Hostbaby - http://www.hostbaby.com/features/ or Bandzoogle - https://bandzoogle.com/features — Derek

Greetings from Norway! Thanks for the inspiring idea. Here´s my page: http://stammen.no/now

YES!!!

Great idea! Love it! http://andree-wille.de/now

Curious, Derek, how does this relate to your stand on not sharing your goals?
Unrelated. Use the /now page to say whatever you'd say to someone who you haven't seen in a while, who's asking, “How are you? What's going on? Whatcha working on these days?” If you'd rather not tell something, no need to. — Derek

I LOVE IT! Glad to be a follower of the followers.
http://abcompany.com/now/

Awesome idea! Here's mine: http://www.dianelee.com.au/now/

Hey, sorry I'm different here on this one. I do think that a "Now" page can be useful at times and for some people. I share some of what is going on with me on Facebook, Instagram, and occasionally on Twitter which seems to be what most people do. I tried blogging, per-say and just don't have time for that, which to me is what a "Now" page would be, except maybe less involved, but could be as detailed or extensive as you wanted it.

For some of my customers that want to share what is going on with them on their website, I'll set up a feed (usually in a section on one side of the main page or whatever page, or even multiple pages that they want it on) from FB, T, Blog, etc. so that their website is updated automatically with that feed and they only type stuff once to share with friends and website visitors the post that come from their personal page or the business page, group, etc. If you're doing that, I don't see a need for a "Now" page, if not sure make a "Now" page or put the feed there.

For me I don't have time to share a lot of what is going on in my life in general to the world, I guess I'd rather or am just one of those that wants to be out doing instead of typing or posting whatever.

I do respect Derek and feel he has many great ideas, this one just doesn't fit me or some of my customers.

Great stuff, now just have to set a reminder to keep it updated! :)

Put mine here: https://gergely.imreh.net/now/

My principal led our first all school teacher meeting with your clip. Since then, I have witnessed the same process in my classroom and now give ample time to let my 5th grade students feel safe about expressing themselves and to seeing what happens. Their actions pretty much mirror your video - and I'm seeing a ripple effect within some students who are now sticking out their toes a bit into the waters of risk taking for the fun of it. A nice change to see in this generation of anxious kids!

That's a great idea!! I will add something like that to my home page.

http://www.samuelbosch.com/p/now.html

I like it.

http://www.chrisgoosman.com/now

It needs some refining, but it's a start!

I think this is such a great idea. I've added one myself now :)

https://andy-bell.co.uk/now

Will be hard to update it regularly but what the heck:
http://ilukac.com/now

Lovely idea Derek, here's mine http://kerrisharp.com/now/

Such a great idea. In just the few minutes it put together it put everything in perspective and will be helpful to return to to refocus when necessary.

I loved this idea and implemented it immediately.

That said, I took a slight spin on mine and put my activities into different buckets by answering three questions.
1. What am I doing for work?
2. What am I doing for self-improvement?
3. What else am I doing?

Here are my results: http://www.johngarvens.com/now/

http://bealers.com/now

I do many diverse things and love the idea of a /now page.. so here is mine :)

http://stuffjolikes.com/now/

This made a deep impression, given our previous interactions and my thoughts this year. So, I've added a now page,

http://fernandogros.com/now/

Great idea !
http://www.dharma-mirror.com/now/

http://www.jubari.com/now

http://wingtip.net/now/

Great idea.

http://www.andrlik.org/now/

I created my now page, but my computer reads the link as spam. It is not just my now page though. I clicked on a few of the others here and got the same result. Also, my other pages display fine. Just not the now page.

Is there a reason pages with /now in the URL would register as spam with common browsers?

http://joescoffeefix.blogspot.com/p/now.html
class="response">The real question is which program on your computer has decided those URLs are spam? I think you've installed a program that most of us don't have. Of the thousands of people who have checked out these sites, you're the only one who's said their computer is labeling them as spam. Try to figure out what program is doing that, then email me. — Derek

Great idea.

http://dvpolymedia.com/now/

I really like this idea. I quite often see big gaps in peoples blogs that I follow and find myself wondering what they're up to. Also, potentially great for further employers wondering how people fill their time outside of work. Here's mine: https://danielgroves.net/now/

Great to see all these ‘now’ pages! Here’s mine:
http://ingahope.com/#now

Good idea Derek! Keeps u focused on your own movement as well

It is always good to realize, what I want to accomplish.

http://mindfultester.com/now/

http://www.ericgfriedman.com/now

Thanks for the idea Derek! Here's mine: http://www.kingdomofrock.com/now/

I'm having an intense desire to make a /later page as well. I'm guessing that would defeat the purpose? LOL

Heh :)
I did something similar in February at the organization where I work. I started in a new managerial role and soon realized that potential topics pile up fast, and I need some way to organize them and ALSO keep others informed.
So I created a public kanban board with a column for "backlog" (so people can see what topics I've considered and how many there are), "in progress" (so people can see what I'm working on now), and "done" where I move stuff I've finished.
So whoever wants to know what I'm doing now, they can look at the in progress column. I update it at least every two weeks. So far people have liked the idea and it's been helpful for me, too, to communicate why I can't do this or that because "hey, look at these things here and let's negotiate".

You are so inspiring, Derek. I'm going to update my site and add a now page. I've been lax in keeping up with my personal pages, with the exception of my blog: A Light Beyond the Hedge. My music site has gathered cobwebs because of family commitments and managing my depression and anxiety, while working full-time as a writer for a marketing agency and zooming all over the US doing that.

I know that you've had some personal challenges, as well, Derek, so I hope you are in a peaceful place. With success comes hoards of coat-tail riders. Don't let them drag you down. Just take off the coat every so often and free yourself.

Warm regards,
Virginia

Thank you, Derek, for sharing your ideas. You're one of a kind and your ideas are always valuable. While I don't have a personal website, your suggestion has given me the idea to paste in my business URL (redtwist.org) into my personal correspondence, thus outlining the projects on which I am working at any given time, which is typically producing two shows: our own mainstage show, and a guest company show, ie, we have begun to host/mentor upstart theatre companies with talented young artists who suggest worthy projects. This has been an absolute joy and a total win-win, and the idea is due in part to your philosophy of giving back, which is always evident in your ideas. All the best to you, sir!

This is awesome. Thanks!

Great movement you started, Derek!
Here is my "now"

Brilliant idea! Here's mine:

Useful-Nice (if someone builds a wp-custom post type... I'd be interested)

- keep up with my 'now' here: http://knowledgeeratlarge.net/now/ -

I love this idea. I love it so much that I created my own now page. This is really to reflect upon the priorities of your life.

My /now page is located at:

I love seeing what everyone's up to!

Hi Derek,

My whole website deals with the moment of now:

http://heartppify.com/pages/why-now

http://heartppify.com/pages/econowlogy

I have a "now url portfolio"

Super Great, I will get one - but I need more time to set up than 'now.'

Some super great people on nownownow.com - I will also have to find more time to browse these now pages!

Here's my now: http://www.djankowski.com/now.html

Focuses the mind.
http://rhondamerrick.com/now/

Thanks for allowing this to happen!


http://rachelpearlmusic.com/now

Thanks !

Very cool idea!

http://www.fredriklyhagen.com/now/

Derek, For some reason this appeals to me! Been following you since you started CD Baby in Woodstock and when early customers were even invited to hang out up at your place then. I don't tweet or do any of that type of social media (just facebook) but I am going to try to do a "Now" page. I am also President of the Music Educators Association of NJ and see you donated a ton of $ to music education. I will explore and see if i should do a "now" page from our website, too! here is the link that site www.mea-nj.org. Non profit organization, all volunteer work and I have been donating hundreds of hours of my time to this organization. Now I will explore NowNow!! Thank you!

I like the idea of a /now page, but it assumes an English-only, monolingual website.

The word "now" is in English; if my site was in German that might be /jetzt or /aktuell, in Japanese it might be /ただ今 or something like that. Or an non-English site might use the English word for the URL, for brevity.

In a multilingual website, a common convention is to use the root of the URL path to indicate language. The English-language about page is at /en/about_us, the German-language about page is at /de/ueberuns, etc.

Thus, it would be interesting to develop a machine-readable convention that says, "the now page for english is at /en/now", "the now page for German is at /de/aktuell" etc.
The page can be called anything. This is not machine-read. It's not just looking for any site with "/now" in its URL. This is a very hand-made collection of personal sites that have created a page to say what they're working on now. Any language and any URL is fine. /ただ今 or /qzwxkvuyv — Derek

This is a great idea. Thanks!

I'm IN. And I'll post a link as soon as I can! (I'm a teacher; it's the middle of the school day -- I won't get to this later... but if I don't post that I'm going to do it, I'm worried I won't make the time to actually do it.)

Thanks for this! I've added my own NOW page:

This is a simple, yet fantastic idea. I added my Now page here:
https://chaosfoxwriting.wordpress.com/now/

Thanks Derek!! The angels are very happy...http://www.goldenangelproject.com/now

What I'm doing now is commenting on the idea of creating a /now page, which makes this comment a /mininow page--and also a /metanow page.

In other words, I second what "hornery Jon" said.

Once again, I have absolutely NO idea what you are talking about--any of you--BUT, if my guess is correct, as far as I know, no one has ever been interested in what I am doing, either now or ever... or has gotten in the way of me doing it. And, I much prefer it that way.

Heya Derek! Thanks for being such an inspiration.

I added /now page too:

Hi Derek,

You're always such a trendsetter. Thanks for that. I'm still crowdsourcing my 50plusreinvented project. Here's my "NOW" page: http://www.50plusreinvented.com/p/now.html
(Note your interview front and center on my "Interviews" page. Thanks again for your unbelievably constant generosity of spirit.)

This is such a great idea and I'm excited to see that it's taking off! I've been following your writing for a number of years now. Thank you for all that you do.

Here's a link to my /now page:
http://joshbicknell.com/now/

What an interesting idea! I can see converting my blog into a /now with a monthly update post. Or, I could just keep that in a journal and not flood the world with another personal blog :)

http://lukestevens.coffee/now/ Thanks!

How does one make a now page? I think it is a brilliant idea.
See http://nownownow.com/about In short: you need your own website first. — Derek

Thank you, Derek, for your inspiration. Here's mine:

Thank you much, Derek. For all the great posts & thoughts. I expect this will be very useful for me: http://zacharyshahan.com/now/

Simple idea, which works wonders – Why over complicate?

I took your concept and ran with it (after procrastinating for 32 days!)

http://walkineden.com/now/

Hi Derek,

Great idea; I love it and it's just the focus I needed. I added a NOW page to my site today at http://randompursuit.com/now.

Love this idea not only to set the intention for myself, but to share with others. I also like seeing what others are up to.

http://www.stormystrong.com/now/

super idea!

Interesting!!http://www.afu.ac.ae/en/recruitment/

I love the first follower! Who is truly the first follower if the first follower suggests the lone nut dance and then becomes the first follower? I do that all the time in business. So am I the lone nut, or the first follower? Wait.. maybe this belongs on another page.

I love the way you think,Derek. Just heard the short in between podcast you did on Tim Feriss. It was really insightful, specially the part about just being yourself and not going against your nature. Bye the way, NZ is awesome.I live here too! Christchurch!

Nice Idea!

http://anuragpeshne.github.io/now

It occurred to me in the last few months that this concept is critically absent from the internet landscape, especially where flipping email only customer service dominates.

The problem with this implementation is the last updates to these "now" pages are already days & weeks old.

What we need, are applications which which point to where we are NOW so that when goals overlap we can waste far less time in getting to a collaboration point.

blab.im schedule, twitter feeds, active/realtime rss..

Shortening the distance between customers & owners/business/entrepreneurs/&individuals from the virtual equivalent of TRADING HAND TYPED POST-IT-NOTES, to something along the lines of, hey, let's get something DONE; this is what i'm up to lately, here's where our goals overlap, *here I am RIGHT NOW*, let's trade the best of our realtime insights.

Hi Derek, I like this idea and just added a now page to my site

http://www.isaacring.com/now/

I recently read your book Anything You Want and it's given me some inspiration to pursue what freedom means to me.

http://sammiebae.com/now.html

Thanks for this Derek.
Needed to focus

This is just like my website front page in the late 90s. :)

Love it!

http://angelaalcorn.com/now/

I liked this idea and I did my page /now - http://blog.reushkin.ru/now

I finally got around to creating mine – this is a family blog, I've listed what we're doing as a family, and individually: http://pearceonearth.com/now

As I've made a couple updates to it, though, I've thought it would be nice to have an archive of past updates, so I can see what we were doing on different dates. I'm not sure of an easy way to automate this with Wordpress, so when I make a major change, I'm considering moving the existing now page to "/now-[date]" and maybe keeping a list of them at the bottom of the current /now page for reference. If you have any other ideas for how to do this, I'd love to hear them.

Yet another who've joined this great idea!

http://www.micaelnobre.com/now/

Thank you very much!

http://www.gatewaygears.com/now

I have spent the last 14 years of my life trying to perfect the tracking of my thoughts and what I am doing now. It has only been recent that I have made a website dedicated to what I'm doing now.

Thank you for sharing the video and TED talk about first Followers. It was inspiring. It lines up really well with a study I have been doing for a few year on social and being yourself in a group.

You may find this interesting, I have found there are 5 types of being in a group. There is the speaker, Wingman, Organizer, Wallflowers, and Outcasts. What you see in the video is a speaker, speaking his language through dance. He is expressing his excitement for something. The first person who joins him is a wingman, someone who excepts the excitement from the speaker, connects on the same level and adds to that positive energy. Together they build the energy and confidence of that space. The next two people who come up and convince their friends to join would be a type of organiser because they have a following of people that value their opinions and actions.

You are applying the same concept by lining up your values or goals with others and sharing them here. You would be considered a speaker (or content creator because this is online) and Organizer because you bring people together, They connect with you on a deep level and add to the movement.

Something to think about.

My study is more through the lens of being social, connecting, and building relationships. It appears you study a broad view of movement in crowds of people. If you are interested I would enjoy hearing your thoughts and input about movements.

I need to get to bed.

Cheers

Jason Rogers

Hello !

I saw your idea of a Now Page on the website of Tomas Laurinaricius and loved it sooo much, that I decided to do one.

That is only when I read again carefully the page, because I wanted to refer to my inspiration in my own page, that I saw the movement and all the pages Now !

Here is mine : http://www.truehappyself.com/now/
It is in french, but I can translate it if necessary to take part.

Let me know :)

http://www.beable2.com/anayabel/now/

Pretty cool stuff!, would it not be epic if you could join people who are doing the same thing at the same moment? for instance, design, dadship, arts, projects, travel? do the not write algorithms for such application?

*flies away*

Love the idea! Here's mine: https://shameem.me/now/

This does not resonate with me. And I feel bland compared to all those exciting folks on the now page.

I suppose that to others, as regards my appearance and personality, I am not boring, yet in a way I am.
Derek points out in his other now post that your page can be for a friend you haven't seen in a year.

My problem is that I would tell a friend stuff that I fear would be too boring or too personal for a non friend.

I spend happy hours writing fiction that won't see the light of day yet, and hours on nonfiction essays for my blog. These hours and topics to me are just too personal/boring for the average person. I never tell people the title of what I'm working on.

My blog does have followers, but they are nearly all people I know in real life.

I guess I don't trust strangers to be positive. I will think more on this.

This is immensely useful for me for several reasons. First, it helps me avoid the narcissism-hole that social media can become. Second, it keeps me grounded on the "next steps" for any project I aspire towards instead of a hundred fantasies without any production.

My page is https://stuckylove.wordpress.com/now/

Sweet idea, I'm on board!

Perfect idea! Thanks Derek!

Hey Derek!!!
I love the idea of a Now page. Just published mine.

Stumbled upon this!

I think this is great!

Great for accountability and to take action, fail, fail public.

I only have medium.com publication right now, but I nevertheless added a "now" page.

https://medium.com/pasindu/now

Would have been really nice to duly mention ~/.plan files from the "finger" protocol, which has been *roughly* the same idea since almost 50 years.

But let this comment be the missing footnote then. ;)

I hope this qualifies as my now page, I'm a technical blogger and would like to like-minded people.


https://mobiviki.com/about-us/

Love it. https://johnjmannion.com/now/

This is great. We're always shifting projects around, and this is the most efficient way for our friends and colleagues to know where we're focusing our energy. Not to mention it makes a perfect self-accountability tool.

Hi Derek- listened to you speaking with Tim on the Tim Ferriss Show (my boyfriend got me into that podcast and has told me that your episodes were the most impactful for him) ... and created a Now page :) Thanks again for your words and your enthusiasm. You are a wonderful storyteller and you inspire me.

https://www.soheecha.com/now

Hi Derek,

This may seem a silly question, but do you suggest Now pages are best for individual service based websites? I have a product ecommerce site and wondered if it would be applicable for this type of website? Obviously not to give away trade secrets but to let customers know categories we are working on or social initiatives or even team workshops etc?

Regards
Stephanie
They're best for personal sites. But if your clients often want to know what's new with you, a /now page would be good for that, too. — Derek
