Ymmij

If you were to scroll through all the posts you've made on all your social media, how accurate of a picture would you get of yourself? Would your grandchildren, your relatives, or friends remember you the way you want to be remembered?

Ymmij is a new way to think about how you share your life. Instead of posts on a wall or in a feed, what if you left behind your thoughts, beliefs, and self-told story?

Ymmij wants to provide an alternative to the superficialness of the current social media landscape. The inspiration behind Ymmij is to leave behind a truer image of yourself through online activity inspired journaling.

By participating in quick, easy activities and journaling on Ymmij, you would casually build up a more profound story of your life and who you were for those closest to you.

Currently, people consume social media content more often than producing content. And much of the important content people do produce comes in bite-sized highlights with not much insight into a person's true self.

Ymmij wants to encourage people to start documenting meaningful, personal content--and you can do it through our traditional journaling tools as well as engaging in quick and light prompts pushed to you weekly or daily.

The philosophy is for your journal entries to not only document your true self, but to also reveal aspects of yourself you may not have known.

Each day, Ymmij will encourage you to create an entry relating to who you are. Sometimes it's a simple question between two choices. 

Other times, Ymmij will give you short activities to complete. 

In addition to completing prompts and activities, you will earn points to use toward Ymmij merch, partner products, or to donate toward charitable causes.

Think of Ymmij as a more meaningful life insurance. What you build on Ymmij will remain private until you chose to publish it publicly. Your "beneficiaries" will receive your complete Ymmij when it's time--a profound, immaterial addition to your physical and monetary estate.

Through Ymmij, you and those closest to you will come to know the most authentic you on any social media site.
