LINKED FROM THE WIKI WHEN AVAILABLE.

= colorplan

colorplan is a toy project created to help myself find a little peace in the middle of all my projects. The idea was 
provide an interface  where I can just set my eyes on, spot the project that requires more attention, work and mark it 
as worked. Using Ruby on Rails, a bit of gaming theory and aging algorithms I got something along those lines in one 
evening.

In colorplan, projects 'age' while waiting for your attention. Every project have its own aging priority and will get 
older based on that. This 'age' is reflected on the interface as the projects' background color: A 'green' project has 
been worked on just a few minutes ago, while a 'red' project requires immediate attention. After finishing a task 
related to a project, you mark the project as worked and - ding! - he gets a shiny green background again!

The concept is pretty simple: if a project is more important than another, you should spend more time on it. And if you 
are doing your homework and breaking your projects in small, doable quests/tasks, you will be able to do all of them 
pretty well.
