Derek Sivers started the idea of a /now page to keep visitors to personal sites to date on what’s going on. It came about because an /about page doesn’t really describe what a person is up to, and digging through social media is too in the weeds to be useful either.
It occurred to me that I created a document of my own I called “The Plan” and it was a lot of what I would consider to be a /now document. Here’s my stab at it; I’ll likely turn this into a page on a site somewhere/sometime. I’m keeping it career-based for now.
If you’d like to see more /now pages, you can visit Derek’s nownownow site.
