Ideas / Personal time tracking

« on: November 19, 2008, 12:08:57 pm »

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but there is no option to see work someone has done overall. You can take a look at time tracking for a specific task, but I can't take a look at my profile and see what I've done work on (or what I'm wasting time on).

It would be great if I could check up on myself. I use openGoo to manage my work projects, but I could create some "permanent" tasks like "cleaning", "movie watching", etc and see how much time I waste on these.

I haven't looked into how all this is implemented now, but I'm guessing gathering all task time data would not be hard. it would mean however that if a task gets deleted, the time gets deleted too, but for me this would be ok.

I have to mention at the end of all my forum posts (3 only so far) how awesome OpenGoo is and how it's already THE best solution I've ever seen

Feature requests / Re: folders for documents

Hi Ignacio!

Yep, I've come to the same conclusion that sub-workspaces may be best. OpenGoo is quite flexible anyway, so while this is a bit annoying it's noweher near an "issue"

Also, I actually only have like 3 workspaces and 10 document and 10 tasks. I'm filling up as I go along, but I don't have enough data in there yet to draw any real conclusions of my own

Whatever happens, OpenGoo is the most awesome thing ever done

I don't really agree about the too many subfolders issue. I mean don't make too much subfolders you can't handle

Options like subfolders should be there as an option, to use it if you want. I mean if I misuse subfolders it's my fault.

I do agree that if you have a load of subfolders tags are better, but I would only need 2-3 or se for additional depth and clarity.

Feature requests / File archive feature for a clearer workspace

« on: November 17, 2008, 07:46:19 am »

I've taken a look at the forums and haven't seen this explicitly written down, please excuse me if it is here already, I'm new to the forums here

Basically I would really love an archive feature. I have some workgroups with sub-workgroups and after a while it can get a bit overwhelming if I want to view files for all of them. It would be great to de-clutter if I could select files and "archive them", which could work like in Gmail, you have to select an option to see all files (which would include archived ones as well).

Right now all I can do is give files the "Active" tag and when I'm done give them the "Archive" tag and always view my active files. Another workaround would be if you would have checkboxes next to tags, so you could view all files except ones in the "archive" tag for example. this way I wouldn't have to add "active" to all files.

Thanks for your awesome application by the way, beats anything I've tried so far

I would also love to have folders in OpenGoo. I don't like tags for folder management because I consider folders to be like categories and tags like well... tags.

The difference being that with folders I can specify topics. I do some web design so for me A workspace would be "Design for Clients", inside I would have folders for the "Micro Design" where only a few hours of work are needed and "Large projects" and so on.

I would use tags to go deeper and tag them with "graphic design", "php", and so on. i would love to have folders, this may be a "management method error" on my part, but I just like them more.
