Intuitive time tracking - visualized on a horizontal timeline
Busy delivers intuitive time tracking - visualized on a horizontal timeline. Your timeline is presented in a familiar interface most people know how to use - a calendar. It works as a calendar but is unlike any calendar.

Most people don't like tracking time, and most time tracking tools won't score more than 3 if you were to rate them on a scale from 1-10. The existing tools are usually complicated to use and not very sexy. On a mission to break 3, we decided to build Busy.
First, we looked at how time is best visualized. In books time if often visualized on a horizontal timeline, taking you from A to B, making it easy to pin events.
Second, we looked on how we could best implement the concept of a timeline in a familiar interface most people know how to use. Most people know how to use a calendar, and by rotating a traditional calendar sideways, we ended up with a timeline.
The result is Busy. It works as a calendar but is unlike any calendar.
I'm definitely going to be using this when multitasking on large projects to better understand the amount of time it takes.
I hope that projects can individually be shared to which myself or a client can subscribe in their calendar if they don't which to create an account. I see I can connect to the Google and Outlook calendars, though Busy hasn't - at this time - been verified by them. I imagine some people might prefer a vertical timeline for each day, perhaps this can be achieved through the calendars. It would be good if more than one Google/Outlook/Apple calendar could be connected for personal and work projects.
