So maybe a good starting point is that? Assume the TW is always live. Just as an example I was thinking of Thomas Elmiger's ToDoNow. It does have time setting for tasks. For the items that do have a time set it would be great if there were an alert 30 minutes before the event time. Rather than have a system notification, what would really help is if that the event concerned (the Tiddler) would show in a pop-up in the TW (maybe in a modal?) 30 minutes before the due time with a message saying "X happens in 30 minutes". Not sure if this is in anyway possible? But, something like that. (Let me hasten to add that I am no way saying TE should do this ... merely it is a good example where an alarm could have utility) > the part that is lacking and that a lot of people assume is trivial is the > user interface.
