If you have known me for very long you probably realized at some point that I have a ton of ideas and crazy plans, but I usually have a pretty hard time following through. This is most evident in the number of domain names and half-written projects I have laying around. Well, I think I may have finally broken myself of this habit. I followed through and got AutoTest.NET out, even if it still needs lots of work. I took over The Lounge, even though that was kind of cheating since I just had to install and configure existing code.

Now I am ready to launch 22books, the rails side project I have been working on for a couple months. It's a pretty simple site that is centered around the creating and sharing of book lists. There are plenty of book sites out there, but 22books is different than most because I focused more on just book lists and less about cataloging all of your books.

I approached this project with a couple goals. The first goal was to give people a place to easily create book lists, but the second goal was to create a large set of standard lists. Standard lists would be things like a complete list of Kurt Vonneguts works, or Booker Prize winnders, etc.

I tried to make the site as simple and easy to use as possible, I will add more features in future releases, but I hope to keep the simplicity.

Check it out and let me know what you think. I am going to blog this weekend about what tools/plugins I used to build it.
