Show HN: Study Profiles

Hi, this is a free app to track and showcase what you studied. By doing that, you also contribute to curated catalog of learning resources of any kind. With ratings and network of topics.

Some background:

I always hate it when I want to learn about something new and don't know where to start. What webpage to read for a quick introduction? What book to buy for deep understanding? Whether a paid course will be worth it.

That's why I and my friend created this app. We have been working on it for over a year now. We released first version few months ago but it was pretty empty and users wanted to search for resources, not register them.

So we added a "single-player" feature in this release to overcome the chicken-and-egg problem. Basically you can register everything you read/watch online/offline and create your own "study profile". We think it's great not only for tracking what you studied (and easily finding it later) but also for sharing with other people (and putting it on your CV?) as this is better record of what you really know than for example your university diploma.

We also plan to add a feature where you will be able to find people that studied a topic you are interested in and get inspired by their learning path.

I am curious what you guys think about it.
