Something Wonderful

So I saw this thing on Twitter about designing something everyday. I’d link to it, but this post is really completely unrelated. Basically, though, it was a challenge to design something new everyday. If you’ve ever tried to design things you probably know that this can be more difficult than it sounds.

Anyway, I was also reading “My Life is Average” (Google it) a little bit lately. The combination of these things, and the reading over of my resolutions (specifically #16) gave me a new idea. It’s a bit crazy, I know, but I think it could be cool. It even deserves a new paragraph and a header.

I’d create a new domain called “somethingwonderful.whattheblindsee.com” (yeah, it’s long, I’ll probably abbreviate or something). Users could create an account, and post little things they’ve learned about God. It could be a verse, it could be something that happened to them during the day, it could be a song, etc. Just something that helped them to get a better picture of how wonderful God is.

The only way this would work, though, is if I had a few people committed to post on it regularly. It would work a lot like “My Life is Average” but without competition. It would work a lot like Twitter, except posts would probably be limited to something like 500 characters and not 140.

To be clear: the goal of the site is to glorify God by proclaiming His attributes and actions… and to encourage believers by stirring up affection for Him (which of course accomplishes in some way the first bit, but is a bit more specific).

Let me know what you guys think.
