A while back I mentioned that we were working on widgets/gadgets for
TaskDriver that would extend our application out to be used with sites
like FaceBook and Google. This week Joel has been making a good bit of
progress on the Google Gadget for the TaskDriver 2.0 Dashboard and I
have a sneak peek preview of what it looks like!
Here it is as seen from the customized Google homepage:
When completed any TaskDriver user will be able to view task from the Google home page. How awesome is that?
Cole is also moving along with his tasks and should be wrapping them up soon. Once that is completed, I will open up the beta test for all who would like to participate.
Thats all for now - see you all next week.

Well we have had quite a few people asking about the beta and when they
will be receiving their access key and well my answer is.... SOON.
We allowed the first set of beta testers in and we found a few things
to address and so we are working on them now. I had an epiphany one
night about how our dashboard (index page) should look and after some
thought I decided that we would change it now rather than later. Cole
is working hard on that and so when his ready to test it we will open
the beta door again (no pressure Cole :P)
Some other enhancements had been made, Like being able to edit your
LAST task note after submission was executed. This will allow you to
fix your a mistakes on notes since communication is so crucial on
tasks. Doesn't seem like much now but later when your blowing and going
on your projects it will come in handy! You'll see what I mean.
When Joel and I discussed some of the subscription types we were going
to put into the new version, I was initially thinking of a tiered type
service.
Tier 1 - was free and allowed you to create a limited amount of
projects with assignees and tasks- It also displays advertising
material.
Tier 2 - is a payed tier that gave a you little more options. projects, tasks and so on.
Tier 3 - is the payed tier that is "platinum" no limits on anything.
This is the current plan (don't worry it doesn't cost an arm and a leg
like some others out there) and since then I have thinking about
another approach.
1. TaskDriver 2.0 being totally free to use online. No limits on projects, tasks or assignees.
2. Allow users to buy a TaskDriver license, download the entire application and install it inside their corporate networks.
I am still kicking this idea around. If you have any comments on this - by all means post em!
Our forums are finally making a comeback. We are working on them now
and soon you guys can express yourselves there. We will let you know
the moment they go live.
Ok thats it for this week - got work to do :)
God Bless - TBrillon
