Hello developers, interface designers and human computer interaction specialists of the blogosphere, I have a complaint to make. My computer’s calendar and the calendar on my phone seem to think that my day starts at midnight. If I look at my events for today and have have an event that ended at 2am last night, it still shows up. I realize for a computer, the day starts anew every 24 hours at midnight, but the computer doesn’t get out that often. My day is a little different, my day starts when I get up in the morning.
So, those of you you design the interfaces for Apple’s iCal calendar application and the Sony Ericsson T616 please take note. In the future, is it possible to make the computer/phone more interested in my day than it’s day? If it can’t be intelligent enough to figure out when my day starts on its own, then an option like “My day starts at: 9am” would be nice. Some of us don’t stick so strictly to that whole am/pm thing.
