Literally 10 minutes ago I was telling myself I need to start using my calendar much more aggressively to survive this lockdown and split up the day into more usable segments. Super excited to start using this and even the first 5 minutes have been worth the setup

@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?
Evan Stites-Clayton
@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.

This is really cool. I've been moving around the past few weeks with no meetings and more intuitive schedule, this feels like a shift that could help focus. Giving it a shot.

This is awesome Evan! There's something very interesting about the concept of dividing the day into blocks. The light feature is pretty awesome! Can't wait to see how this evolves

This is so intriguing and unique -- love the snark of "I ain't signing up" on the homepage 🤣 Deeply creative & thought-provoking, Evan!

@shriyanevatia haha thanks for recognizing my little i ain't signin link. In fact the entire site can run just off of cookies so I wanted to give people who really don't want to create an account a path forward, given it might be a little rocky.
