I have an actual diagnosis. Runs in family strong. I also started a new medication a week ago. So right now I’m near my worst. Concept is interesting. Page doesn’t seem to do anything after typing stuff in. The washer is going at moment. About 3 cycles per second. Cars are driving by at about 1 every 10 seconds. 2 cars at a time catch my interest everything. Grey dog outside. Shoes are on the floor. I have many doodles going on the note book next to me. I have gotten some work to day. But it’s scattered. ——- My mind is annoying. Like 3 year old at toys r us, and your supposed to finish math assignment in the LEGO aisle. This page still hasn’t done anything

Hi, I made it change every minute, instead of every 10 minutes. Please refresh to see the changes.

  > Hi, I made it change every minute, instead of every 10 minutes. Please refresh to see the changes. Shouldn't that be configurable? It seems like "catches your attention very frequently like a distraction" is actually not the right behavior for this. Seems like the goal should be to call attention to itself just enough so the notes aren't forgotten and are brought to mind to be started during a distracted moment. I like the idea, but probably won't use it because it's not a desktop app. Some random ideas: 1. Color changing is a good idea. Kinda skeptical about the font mattering much. 2. Moving location is probably a good idea. 3. Probably should pop itself up occasionally to be in front of the active window. 4. Probably should avoid popping up in front of "work apps" (e.g. an IDE, Excel) and pop up more frequently in front of "distraction apps" (e.g. web browser). 5. Steer users towards one thing per note. 6. Occasionally in specific situations (e.g. long time with browser active), the pop up should be unclosable for a short time.

    Agreed, I would need it to change about once per day. I don't use notes to remind myself of things constantly throughout the day, but to remind myself to do something after my current tasks are done.

    Thanks for these suggestions. I will implement some of these ideas soon.

I know how you feel, and it took such a long time for me to recognize that the way my mind works is not necessarily the way everyone's works, and that I'm not inferior to anyone else because of it. But you gotta admit sometimes it's a really fascinating place in there.
