Today I worked on ways of inputting events into the application.
Some things that I focused on:
- what information is needed so that the user can input an event (e.g. What, When, Where, etc)
- how the information is being presented to the user
- the flow of inputting information
It’s important that I figure this part out because it will help me develop the metaphors and the whole look and feel of the application.
I will post my sketches tomorrow.

First day was productive. I didn’t bring my lappie, which I quickly realized was a mistake. I need it so that I can write stuff in the blog!
I wrote down everything that was floating in my head in my sketchbook. I have all these ideas and thoughts that need to get sorted out and put on paper so that I won’t forget.
I will be posting pictures of the pages in my sketchbook tomorrow. (posted!)
