OP here.
The thread by a person who had no network and needed to find work immediately hit home for me (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14842684). I have been out of work before, and understand the importance of having a network and portfolio. But I haven't really gotten around to building them.
This service is something I need to help me get off my butt, and it might help some others too.
In the beginning, it will only remind people once a month to work on building their network, portfolio pieces, CV, etc.
Later, I plan to add features to hold people more accountable, so that they follow through on their intentions.
Would this be something you use? How can I make it useful for you? Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!
Edit: Brevity.
