I had lunch with Danny today and took the opportunity to ask for some feedback/help with the tagging interface I’ve implemented for the next release of Tasks Pro™.
I’d already re-done the tagging interface 3 times, and I’m still not satisfied with it. Trying to walk the line between consistency and subtlety with a feature is tough – especially one not everyone will use.
Danny had a few very good suggestions, and as a result I think I have have an implementation I’m willing to release as an alpha for testing and feedback.
One thing about working by yourself most of the time1, it can be easy to forget the benefits that come from collaborating with other smart folks.
- I do work with other smart people quite a bit on various projects, but I rarely have the luxury of another person with experience on the “web interface” side to riff with. [back]

I hope to have an alpha release out for testing next week. I need to make sure the upgrade script works properly.
