Yeah, I need to put up more info up on the landing page.

Here is my profile on Status Chart: https://www.statuschart.com/kennedysgarage

Two weeks ago I was not happy with my traditional résumé and decided to take a closer look it. I noticed that my career path did not fit on the typical one page one often has. I decided the solution would be to keep my résumé a traditional résumé and create something to enhance it.

I created Status Chart to list out all of my projects, hackathons, events, and so on. I fell that these items are what really make me who I am, not necessary the "jobs" I have had, although important.

I like the problem you're trying to solve, and I think you're on the right track, but this doesn't really work for me.

- The name is obnoxious. Highlighting the events you've been to is somewhat interesting, but implicitly claiming that paying to go to some conference gives you higher social status is lame.

- Too many items. If I were hiring someone would I really want to read through all that? Maybe, but not at first glance.

- Organizing items by the date they were started / completed isn't especially compelling to me. I don't really care how busy you are, I just want to see the most interesting things you've done period.

- It's not clear whether or not you can choose your own categories of what to add based on the front page, and presumably you can't since they each have their own unique icon. This is a problem, because what I would want to highlight about myself wouldn't fit especially well into these categories.

Thanks so much for the feedback!

- I was not trying to imply that someone has a higher social status. Just that I personally have gained so much from conferences, in the terms of knowledge. I have also gained equal amounts of knowledge from just watching videos online for the once I could not make it to.

- I do agree that there is a lot of items. I have just implemented the original filtering system first as that seemed to work. We are working on other way to showcase the items you have, because we know not all profiles will be the same.

- I love this idea, maybe we users could mark items as highlights.

- Right now we are only have those categories. Something that I am trying to take care of first and deciding a better way of doing this.

Thanks so much for your feedback. I really appreciate it!

It would be great if some of the stuff on the about page were on the main page instead (or also).

I would humbly suggest that at the very least you put an explicit link to your own status chart on the main page.

I realize that that image in the middle is clickable, but the fact that you can click on it is not readily discoverable (I only noticed when I went back to see if you added more copy yet :) ).
