I really like this, as "simple" as it is...kind of feels like gamifying online learning. I assume monetization will be for "advanced features" in the future - or what's the gameplan?

I might actually use this. I have an IRC group who might be interested in it.

Gamification is the word indeed! Do tell me about the IRC group :) Money-wise I think this will have some applications in recruiting, project staffing or corporate training, so something along those lines + affiliate.

Will modern memorization techniques be implemented (for example Leitner boxes)?

You can track any source of learning, online course, youtube video, book, or any modern technique as long as you have a link to it

You should add the skills and/or courses, certs, etc from linkedin. Good job.
