[Design] Design proposal for progress reporting in chandler for your evaluation

[Mimi Yin]

Hi Vera,

Thanks for writing this up! A few minor comments:

1. Instead of calculating the # of tiems that were created/received  
in NOW in the last week, would it be possible to figure out the total  
# of new items that were created (either by me or via sharing) in  
either NOW or LATER. This gives you an idea of the rate at which  
you're collecting 'more stuff' to deal with in your life.

2. I wonder if the # of items that are NOW that came into NOW more  
than a week ago is just as interesting as the # of NOW items that  
came into NOW this week. In other words, show me the items I have in  
NOW that have been then for a long time.

3. Should we have #s for the total of items in NOW, LATER and DONE?

It seems like the 3 'big pictures' we're trying to provide users is:
1. How much new stuff did I take on in the last week?
2. Where was my focus? How did my focus change?
3. What stuff did I get done last week?

Does that sound right to you?

Mimi
