I agree with Dillon. I've started using Coaster Counter, but it's not all I wish it would be for keeping track of what you've ridden, 'checking in' on rides (Foursquare integration would be great), learning all about the ride itself, etc..

I like that idea Dillon.

That's a fair criticism TF. I've realized that I have a tendency to spread myself thin at times, but I think the main new project will actually help with that. It'll make more sense soon. And at the end of the day, while I enjoy creating and launching side projects, the mother ship (this blog) will always be a priority.

All we coaster enthusiasts really need a way to keep track of all the coasters we've ridden, also a way to keep track of our top 10 favorites list. But, easy to use, unlike coastergrotto.com.

Are you abandoning your other projects? You seem to have a lot of projects going, and splitting your time among all of them seems to cause them all to suffer a bit. I'm not trying to criticize — I think there are some good ideas — but why not focus on just a couple and make them great?

I would definitely need some help to run something as big as a social network. Heck, I could use help with Hype. Because of spam, I have to moderate submissions. If anyone's interested in helping out let me know!

I like your ideas though. Thanks for the support.

Perhaps a social networking site. I know we have Theme Park Hype, but maybe a site that is less focused on news and uploading news and more on social networking. Perhaps have it that users can make like a facebook page, then fill out what amusement park they are going to next, what amusement park they have most recently been to, favorite coaster, park, etc. Perhaps have like a twitter type thing as well where you can follow people. Also have it available to friend people. Another idea is a roller coaster gaming site where you can play all types of online roller coaster games, quizzes, etc. Another idea is a site in which you can manage your coaster count, ratings, etc. Besides those, I think you have got everything else in the bag, but can't wait to hear the news!
