Have you or will you participate in a "Project 365"?

Dec 31, 2012 6:10 PM

"Project 365" has become pretty popular, with people vowing to read every day, take a photo every day, etc. I kind of like the idea of committing to do something every day, even if it's as simple as drawing an owl (which I'm thinking of). Have you ever taken on such a project? Or is it better to just commit to being involved in our lives as much as possible?

Life passes so quickly and it's easy to take a day for granted; I think it would be amazing to have a record at the end of the year of each day.

I do the 'picture a day' every month, where you get a list and for every day you take a picture of the topic for that day. I usually just take it with my phone & upload it to Facebook.

This year I really want to take a picture in the same spot everyday, then make a video of it at the end of the year. I'd really like to see how I change in a year, and I'd like to do it outside so I can see the seasons change too.

@kmashaney: That's a neat idea but consider the NTSC standard is 29.97 frames per second so a year's worth of pictures would create a video lasting about 12 seconds. If you want it to last longer, you may have to duplicate some of your frames.

I'll eat chocolate everyday! I guess i'll read a book too.

@cengland0: 12 seconds would be just enough time to watch a video of myself before I felt uncomfortable.

Anyway, I plan on using a rebellious computer program that doesn't have to follow NTSC standard.

I'd like to do a picture a day, but I tend to forget.

I feed our dog every day. Twice. Does that count?

It's a great theory to take a picture/read/do a certain something but requires a lot of dedication! It's always impressive to me when someone sticks to it.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
