  • Thinking: I'm still not feeling the new top navigation from a browsability perspective - because it's horizontal it doesn't show the full names of the streams, and if it did they'd stretch out too far. I'm wondering if, now that we are fading out the content on the sides anyway, we could have a vertical streams menu to the right of the content, and potentially stretch out the time periods above the timeline at the top and make them both full width. Something like this:

  • Draft up design for "Solo view" screen - a view that shows posts from a single stream with no ability to switch to other streams

  • Draft up the next release: March 24 release

  • March 17 Release: Highlighter Functionality

    • Goal: Improve display of pages and the passage through time by using a highlight/opacity effect

    • Click a day-link on the timeline to scroll to that day

    • Reduce opacity of non-highlighted days when they're not in the center of the screen

    • Add an active class to the active day in the timeline while it's in focus, keep updated on scroll

    • Add stream name to each post when viewing the all streams

    • Allow modifying dates for stream posts

      • You can now add a date to a post using the Date:: attribute
