Towards beta: re-think & re-group

After doing some research & having some feedback I realized that there's a core feature that could contribute dramatically to the product's value. This feature is a scheduler.

But I can't eat the cake and have it too. If a feature comes in, right before the beta is ready, something must go out. Gotta stay lean. Gotta stay edgy. I Gotta be clear about the value I seek to give.

So I took a couple of days to go over the product, accounting for each feature for its value & contribution to the core vision I want to promote.

What a great feeling: dumping confusing features!

I know it's a bad sign when I use my own product and I think: Wait. What is this good for? Somewhere along the way, I got sucked in by the forces of building for sake of building. I hope I managed to hit the breaks on time.

The new (and definitely last!!!) feature will give users a base from which they can operate and manage their day. It will allow users to group widgets under routines, create tasks & events, track their mood - and all in a scope of a weekly view - just to make sure that your days are human enough, and that you stay on top of everything that's going on in life & mind.
