Dorthy.com in the New York Times

New York Times - December 28, 2009

The New York Times recently featured an article by Paul Boutin about how Dorthy.com can help people achieve their New Year’s Resolutions.

Dorthy.com users create “sharable dreampages with an avowed personal goal, whether it’s ‘build wells in Africa’ or “date a cougar.’” writes Boutin. Each of the pages automatically adds articles, photos, videos, and status updates to your page, based on what it knows about you.”

What differentiates Dorthy.com is that, unlike a traditional search, “the page becomes a bookmarkable record of your progress toward the goal. For well-understood goals such as ‘run a half marathon,’ it’s easy to understand how a page of collected articles on training and running specifically a half-marathon, not a full one, could quickly surpass those found on the first page of a Google search.”
