Today

Tomorrow

  • [P0] Continue fleshing out and getting feedback on the entrypoint list
  • [P0] Continue documenting user experience of "pins" via each entry point
  • [P0] Clean up and share notes from conversation with @warpfork
  • [P1] Continue finding existing research to add to Synthesize existing pinning ux research #14
  • [P1] Get feedback from stakeholders as available and possible (async or sync)

Notes

  • This was a long work day. The "today" list will not always be this long. Friday I have a few commitments during the day, so I want to make the most of today (Weds) and tomorrow (Thurs).

Today

  • [P0] 1:1 with @momack2 for feedback on progress so far (notes in an internal 1:1 document)
  • [P0] Based on feedback ^^, moved more towards initial user journey definition where possible (rather than deep dives in any one particular complex corner of our technology). See https://gist.github.com/meiqimichelle/73ab20e869234a81ed3925875d93e223 for an initial exploration into multiple app + WebUI pinning.
  • [P0] Updated entrypoint list with info gathered async from @lidel and @hacdias. Will do deeper dive with @lidel tomorrow.
  • [P0] Reached out to more stakeholders, this time focusing on a few external-to-PL folks.
  • [P1] Summarized and re-wrote notes from my conversation with @warpfork, which I've shared with him for further clarification. They're not pubic yet. Given feedback above, this task fell a little further down on the priority list. The notes might instead just make their way in bits and pieces into other docs.

Tomorrow

Notes

  • This bullet is intentionally left blank.

  • [P0] Sync with @lidel on pinning UX + Companion + other GUI properties

Today

  • [P0] Started draft PRD with user motivations+workflows (for now, in PL-only doc just to make commenting easier -- will try to move soon! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UVC5BVa7rHYNs359RpN1smPN4FUdZTqvIoDMm0pJ--0/edit#heading=h.ddztyzip7s58 ). So far, have started flows for a "John Q. Curious Public"; an "Alexandria Librarian"; and a "Hacker MacDev".
  • [P0] Revisited Companion-ish user journey; not finished yet, and also seeing if I can get some feedback from @lidel (he may not have time)
  • [P2] In the process of organizing a sync with non-PL pinning API users

Tomorrow

Notes

  • I wasn't feeling great this morning and so got less done than I'd hoped. Hopefully tomorrow I will be back to full energy.
  • Reminder: I will be OOO starting in the evening Tuesday, and will be back at the keyboard Thursday morning.
