Hammered on 43 things tonight
I finally got around to trying out 43 things which is yet another one of the social networking sites that I've signed up for in the past few weeks.
Basically, 43 things is a public to-do list. You post things that you want to do and others can add that task to their list. Eventually, you form little groups around common tasks.
While it sounds kind of kooky (and the many of the tasks are kind of flaky), I think it could be interesting and helpful for certain things that require collaboration or advice. I guess it can also be used as a way to organize and chronicle your progress through a particular task.
In addition to things you want to do, you can also keep a list of the things you have already done. I've created a pretty goofy list of things just to try out the functionality:

At some point, I am going to have to go back and delete all of these memberships, otherwise I will have all of these test profiles with really lame things in them. And we can't risk tarnishing the sterling reputation of sMoRTy71, right?
