I really much liked the Dreamline concept in Tim's book. It's a great way to focus on what you want to achieve. And to realize that you need much less money than you think.

Currently, I'm developing a small iPhone application that helps me "managing" my dreams, my monthly expenses, and shows my current TMI and TDI.
Primarily, I developed this app for myself. So it's pretty much tailored to my needs.

Still, I'd love to hear what others think about it. Maybe it's useful for you, too?
Have you thought about managing your Dreamline in a small app on your mobile?
Or do you think the Excel sheet Tim provided is more than enough?
Are there any features you miss from the excel sheet?

In addition, I'd like to invite you to sort of a private beta. Of course, you need an iPhone or an iPod touch for this.

If you're interested in beta testing, please drop me a note.
Either through this forum or via twitter @stefanlesser.

BTW: I don't consider this app to become one of my muses. But I think it helps focusing on finding and implementing my real muses. :-)

Regards,
Stefan

I think it sounds like a great idea. I don't own an iphone, they were late coming out in Japan, but I am quickly starting to see the benefits. Jetset Life, another member has started using hers in some pretty interesting ways, so this might be something to think about.

Great idea! I don't own an iPhone, but if I did, I would like to see it :)

Wow! I think that is a phenomenal idea. I would definitely pay money for that dreamline app. The pictures look awesome! I will be looking forward to purchasing this on my phone.

Hey congrats, I assume that was you Tim was talking about in the video on his blog today? I sent him an email letting him know about your application :)

Thanks Marcie!

Tim and I exchanged some emails (through his assistant Amy, of course ;o).
He said, he "will check it out on Kevin Rose's iPhone." I had no idea, that he's going to mention it in the video. I've just seen it. And I'm really happy, especially because he thinks "it looks really slick."

Now I need to get the next version up, with some user suggested enhancements.
Will still take a while, as I'm moving this weekend.

I've not done much with mine. And I haven't figure out how to de-pink it. I didn't want quite so much.
