improveTHIS!

» 16 comments, published April 23, 2005 under Rails, Software, TaskTHIS

I'm happy to report that taskthis! has been well received. It has over 1200 registered users! I've gotten a lot of positive response; bugs, suggestions, and feature requests. I appreciate it all.

Originally it was just a tech demo for illustrating how easy it is to use Ajax in Rails... But from the response, and my own usage, I think I'm going to commit a little time and flesh it out.

Oddly enough, the taskthis.com domain was available. So, of course, I snatched it up! That means in the near future it'll have a new home (a textdrive home, at that).

So what does it need to make it 'full-fledged'? ... That wasn't rhetorical, it was a request for feedback! Here's the list, at the moment:

  1. Various little cleanups in the UI
  2. Fix UTF-8 support
  3. Public tasklists (everyone can see)
  4. Shared tasklists (multiple users can add/complete taskitems)
  5. Pervasive RSS
  6. 'Remember Password'
  7. Taskitem reordering
  8. Tasklist reordering
  9. Tasklist merging
  10. Taskitem due date (I'm rather leery of this one)
  11. Help (seems obvious enough, eh?)

Let me know what features you'd like added to the list.
