Nice project. Keep in mind I'm just a tire-kicker on HN, but it would be neat to have dynamic periodic reminders similar to spaced repetition learning algorithms except you rate the strength of the relationship after each session. Strong ratings mean you can see them a little less frequently; weak means you should see them (a little) more frequently.
Ideally this would let you maximize the number of maintainable acquaintances. Unfortunately (for some), it would also prevent any from getting too close. :)
- robinhood 9y agoThanks for the idea. How would you rate the strength of the relationship? A star mechanism?
- 1123581321 9y agoYes, I'm imagining 1-5 stars with text descriptions to help ratings be consistent, similar to how software like http://mnemosyne-proj.org/features http://mnemosyne-proj.org/features handles ratings.
- robinhood 9y agoIsn't it weird though to put stars on people?
- 1123581321 9y agoYes, it is weird. :) It's just a fun idea I've had that requires some kind of 'friends CRM' such as the one you've developed.
- Raphmedia 9y agoSnapchat does it. http://emojipedia.org/snapchat/ http://emojipedia.org/snapchat/
- winkle 9y agoOther CRM tools I've used will allow you to create groups/categories of contacts and set the recurrence to contact people in that group. You could similarly rate the group instead of individuals. Then the user could re-evaluate based on the group (friends, colleague, family, etc)
- rakoo 9y agoYou wouldn't put stars on people but on relationships... it's something you can have am effect on, so I wouldn't mind rating it !
- robinhood 9y agoOhhh I see the subtitly. That is an awesome idea. Thanks!
