Who else here is on Raptr (http://www.raptr.com)?
For those not in the know, it's a social networking site for tracking game progress and achievements. You can use the feed to automatically feed to your Twitter or Facebook (you know, if you're into that sort of thing). It works brilliantly with Xbox Live and Steam but Playstation 3 functionality is limited due to Sony not keeping open PSN live stats. Automatic trophy implementation was very recently added, but isn't (currently) that reliable. Hopefully this will improve over time and we'll get something as fully functional as the 360 support.
The whole thing sounds a bit sad/geeky, but I've been finding it genuinely interesting and useful to monitor my gaming habits. For instance, this week I've discovered that I've played Beatles Rock Band and Guitar Hero 5 combined for over 30 hours in the space of four days. Thanks to Raptr, I now know that I've got to seriously re-evaluate my life. :D
Tracking games is also useful because it'll tell you exactly how long you have played them for before you get bored/finished with them, so again gives you an idea of whether they were good value for money or not.
Anyway add me below if you're on there already or if you decide to register:
