Scott Flansberg has been looking at time too. Have you seen his work? Here is a quote on his calendar: "The Human Calculator Calendar has 365 days divided into 13 months of 28 days each and the first day of the year is the Zero Day. The 13 months are numbered 0-12. Every month has 4 weeks. Every date falls on the same day of the week every month." http://www.scottflansburg.com/store

@davidsilvasmith I hadn't heard of that but sounds like it works on similar principles. 13 months very cleanly fits into 365 (364 is divisible by 13) and each would be 4 weeks exactly so yes, that seems like a better system to me haha.

@the_esc Yeah! I'd love to see us move to these types of systems. I'm trying out newDay today, thanks for making it!

This completely changed the way I move through time. Helped me shift from manager time to maker time during quarantine, something I had been struggling with immensely at first. The one thing that I'm finding difficult about adapting to newDay is maintaining two calendars. Do you have any plans to integrate with gcal?

@davefontenot Hey Dave, thank you so much for your support. It is truly and deeply appreciated. We do plan on integrating with gCal - the reason we haven't yet is because it takes a long time to get Google to approve that calendar integration permission, but we absolutely see that as future necessary functionality.

That sounds and looks cool, I'll give it a try. One piece of feedback right off the bat: consider not using cmd + arrow to move from hour to hour, when writing a note, and it's already a useful shortcut to move from to the beginning or end of a line.

@robin_boutros Great point!! I noticed this recently and it is on my bug list. It is fine when you are going forward that there is this conflict but totally annoying if you go backwards

@robin_boutros I just updated the hotkeys so that they aren't overloaded in the way you mentioned and I added some new ones, like control + i to open and close the intention modal, control +, / control+. to scan days

I really like this new concept of breaking down the day into 10 chunks, and setting the intentions for each! Very clean interface and weather is a great touch. Some suggestions from my end: - Ability to create Templates which would be really cool, as some tasks are recurring - Ability to add reminders on certain times - More keyboard shortcuts, such as toggling between days or 'the number chunks' (for example, pressing "CMD + 2" / "CMD + 7" will bring me to the 2nd or 7th time slot respectively) - (Also suggested by other users) create a checkbox feature which will allow checking off completed tasks, and integration with apple calendar perhaps? - More display font options I am excited to use this promising app further, to help me fight off procrastination during this period!

@lee_yi_wei Hey! I am just getting to your comment now sorry for the delay. Great ideas and feedback, this is really helpful and appreciated. There's a secret hotkey for day toggling: "control + comma" and "control + period" I also just integrated google calendar, haven't done Apple yet.

@the_esc How do you recommend making this structure work around external commitments – like internal and external meetings for example? Would you block off portions of your day for newDays and try meetings into the remainder?

@james_brady1 Great question James. What I would do if you just have 1-2 meetings is try to group them into one newHour. Otherwise the eventual plan is that you would block out certain newHours as when you are free to meet and if others were using newDay as well it would coordinate to find overlap between you. Beyond that close integration with gcal is what many people are saying would make this much more robust as a calendar go-to.

Hey, I love the concept. Here's what I suggest improving or adding: (1) Favicon for adding the PWA to the home screen, (2) the "set intention" is nice, but how about adding tasks or to-dos to it, i.e. by choosing every evening the most important priorities for tomorrow (https://pmarchive.com/guide_to_p...). (3) If you have the location and therefore sunrise/set data, you could add circadian rhythm events to it (let's say the best time to wake up, the best time to have breakfast/lunch/dinner, the best time for sports, the best time to start evening routine) (4) maybe even the option to use the same layout but with our current standard time (some people have meetings and cannot "switch" to 100 minute hours without getting some kind of confused. Good Job, I'll set it as my standard new tab page and see how it will work out :)

And how about adding in the top bar a year/month/week progress percentage % (20% of the year passed)

And obviously please encrypt the data so nobody except me can read the intentions etc.

Maybe add a "backlog" for intentions and tasks, like a sidebar where I "brain dump" everything and I can draw back later on

@marius_schober Tip: You can edit an existing comment instead of replying to it repeatedly ;) At first I thought this was a conversation between multiple people. Took me a few secs to realize it's all one person.

@marius_schober Hey! I am just seeing your remarks, thanks so much for your attention and thoughts on the product. I'm definitely looking to add in various overlays for things like the circadian data and 110% the choosing important priorities for tomorrow is a part of the practice that I do, I want to build into the tool. As for integrating with meetings and 24 hour time - I just finished building out of a google calendar integration which helps with that a lot.

LOVE this. I see you mention that a Google Calendar integration is coming in the future - I wondered what the timeline is for this?

@phazonoverload Thanks for asking! The Google Calendar integration is now officially live. All you need to do is click the settings cog, then "integrations" auth with Google and refresh the page you should see your events and you can also export intentions to gcal.
