An interesting question! I see time as very subjective. It's as fluid as our thoughts and dreams. How we perceive our place in the time/reality continuum can't easily be quantified. Many of us understand the concept of past lives, but I believe that we can have future lives too. I think some of the great innovators are reborn from the future. I have had vivid past life dreams and I firmly believe that anything the human mind can imagine is possible.

Hey - this is cool! What's the difference between tags & supertags?

@joelrunyon hello there! Thanks for the praise 😌 Supertags are hierarchical (like folders on a laptop). You can try them in notes. For instance you can tag a note like "Project : PR : issue #3", "Ideas : tech". I'll try to highlight them in features this week! So how it feels to you? Ping if there's anything obscure!

@spacegangster two more questions 1) I haven't figured out to how to tag a todo event. Any tips? 2) Can I assign a time to an event so I can plan it out in my day?

@joelrunyon 1) you can create a tag in [manage tags], tune its color scheme. Then you can switch to it and create tasks inside of it. You can't change tags yet. My genuine mistake, I think I'll be able to address it this week, I need it myself. 2) Yes, on a laptop. For now you can create your day tasks, then switch scale (bottom right) to Hour mode and do [reschedule all]. It will feed you tasks one by one and you'll be able to give arrange them within hours of the day. You need minutes too right? I'm thinking about adding a time parser like in iOS reminders

@spacegangster ah - i'll poke around on tags a bit more. Would be great if you could make "hours" signify what day I'm on a bit more as it wasn't quite clear the first few times I clicked that.

@joelrunyon current selected day is always on top, in the status bar. I agree though, as it's a bit too high on the orbit. I'll take a think :) Thanks for all this feedback! Keep it coming!

Cool, idea. Never imagined calendar could be seen as a flow instead of tables. Good luck!

@deepu_mohan_puthrote thanks Deepu! We think it actually makes more sense in the digital age. And it's more scalable – one format that fits very different timespans.

@spacegangster OK cool, yeah I haven't been happy with normal calendars like Google and this looks like an interesting approach to making them more usable!
