I'm planning to use it to implement a GTD[1] utility.
Imagine an application showing an action to do. There are three buttons, "done" (I've done it delete from the queue), "defer" (defer it to a later time), "cancel" (there is no need to do this anymore, or it requires further thinking). When any one of these buttons is clicked the next action item brought forward. Now, imagine, combining this with GPS. In this case, it shows me stuff I should do at home, when I'm home and stuff I should do at work, when I'm at work. Pop up my feed-reader when I'm traveling, etc. Consider there is a simple market-list application, in which I note the stuff I need to buy from market, time to time. When I approach to the market moko starts an audio alert and tells me to stop by the market to buy stuff. When I enter the market automatically pops up my market list. I'm thinking about a plug-in architecture so you can extend this idea as far as it goes, bugzilla integration, mail client integration, web browser integration, integration with an outliner/mindmapper, project planner, tomboy, etc. Every new plug-in will open a door to another cool idea. Started to write it a couple weeks ago, got a sourceforge account[2]. There is a very trivial demonstration application on subversion and as a tarball download. If there is anybody interested I would love to discuss. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gtd [2] http://mebot.sourceforge.net emre On 7/17/07, Daniel Robinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
What are the projects of interest for people? I am interested in working on kid's phones. I have wanted a kid's phone that was not as brain-dead as the phones that are currently targeted at children. I like that the Neo1973 has a secure tether point. I want the phone to be tethered to my kid's backpack or clothing so it can't be lost or stolen. In terms of software, I want to work on GPS related things. It would be good to know where my kids are and when they exit certain zones, e.g., school. --Dan _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
