  • see my tasks organized by those deadlines
  • and not necessarily a “to do” item
  • compilation of reference information
  • a configurable Chandler would be the most scalable solution
  • NOTES or REFERENCE feature would be useful
  • keep track of “reference material” that you want to keep around forever, just in case

  • The first is something he calls a “Bucket” item
  • The second is a GTD Projects List. Andre consults this list repeatedly throughout the day

  • the Dashboard purely as a place to collect new notes, an “intake” area
  • collections must be initially kept out of the Dashboard
  • everything that could possibly be worked on right now needs to be in one place. I use the Dashboard to answer the question, ‘what should I work on next’. Every Collection is in the Dashboard
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • 30 going at a time
  • a cross-collection view of all their data where the could process items regardless of what collections
  • what’s new across all of your collections without having to click on individual collections one-by-one
  • Dashboard collection in Chandler
  • ground for experimentation
  • no way to view items that are in the Dashboard but not in any other collections
    • Graham Perrin
       
      I did wish for this in the early days, but in practice I don't require this type of view.
  •  
    Interesting use cases.

  • Q Can I use Chandler for Email?
  • For Preview
    • Graham Perrin
       
      This paragraph, at least these words, should be updated with respect to 1.0.2.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      Re http://www.diigo.com/annotated/d62b6b8ed21cf763e92d3b3b6a88f86a the expression 'Preview' was in use around April 2007.

      … and uses IMAP, but does not place sent messages in the Sent mailbox of the IMAP server.
  • sent from other Chandler users
    • Graham Perrin
       
      This fundamental point should be HIGHLIGHTED (not diminished in parentheses).
  • downloads messages via 3 IMAP folders
    • Graham Perrin
       
      I see evidence of Chandler 1.0.2 working with POP, though I don't use it in that way.
  • Add messages from your email client into special Chandler IMAP folders
    • Graham Perrin
       
      Messages moved by your IMAP client to Chandler Desktop-specific mailboxes
  • to download them into Chandler where you can manage them as Chandler notes and events
    • Graham Perrin
       
      … will be copied by Chandler Desktop whenever you sync Chandler Desktop.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      Subsequent management within Chandler Desktop will not be communicated back to the IMAP server.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      After a message has been copied by Chandler Desktop, then in your IMAP client you may wish to archive (or set aside) the earlier copy, to avoid confusion.
  • What still needs to be done
  • Sync IMAP Flags and Read/Unread status
  • Unlike "regular" email, you can edit and re-send Chandler emails

  • Collaborate on Notes and Events over Email

      IMHO the e-mail capabilities of Chandler 1.0.2 require special explanation. Some explanations are offered within the FAQ, http://www.diigo.com/annotated/faf93764c6f6f5eb9a29268ad4b472de
    • Graham Perrin
       
      The number and nature of the special explanations, criteria and limitations of e-mail in Chandler Desktop make me think that 'Email' its sub-headings, as currently presented in 'Get Started', should not appear in Get Started.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      I suggest leaving references, from the Get Started page, to pages that are dedicated to: (1) an overview of e-mail in Chandler Hub and Chandler Desktop, and of limited communications with IMAP and POP servers; (2) using Chandler Desktop to configure an IMAP server, and understanding the workflows (in particular, the aspects that are one-way, periodic (Chandler Desktop sync) and incremental (the effect of adding messages to a Chandler-specific mailbox that was previously synced)); (3) e-mail in Chandler Hub; (4) e-mail in Chandler Deskop.
    • Graham Perrin
       
      Critically: the overview should contain no instructions on use; it should present, in pictures and in few words as possible, the current workflow and vision, plus maybe no more than one vision of the future.

      This is a 'Getting Started Guide'. Keep it positive :) Talk of problems, behavioural patterns and visions should be elsewhere (the wiki is fine); simply refer from the Guide to the wiki.

      Comments such as this belong in 'What's new' flyers, or in release notes. People who are truly using this Guide to get started are unlikely to have an interest in project history or design changes.

      Whilst I'm getting started, I don't want to read that things were worse.

  • distinction between a task or todo

  • substance of the task
  • increasingly blurred
  • what’s a thought *about* a task
  • what’s a task
  • inspired by user feedback
  • starred items (furtively used as tasks)
  • users who regarded *everything* they put into Chandler as a task, thereby rendering a specialized “Task Label” superfluous
  • Modeling “Task-ness” well is critical to both workflow and usability in Chandler so rest assured that we will continue to work through it!
