Follow people’s resolutions over the map then, if you’re feeling inspired, click the button to add your own resolutions. Once you enter your own (along with your postal codes and country name). Be sure to select a category such as love, health or career to assign your resolution a color on the map.

One of the neat things about Google’s brainchild is that it allows users to enter resolutions in their native languages and then it automatically translates them for others around the world.

Thanks to this setup, a person who only speaks English can still watch and read people’s hopes and dreams from around the globe in real time.
