My Talk on Lapsus
June 15, 2009 | 2 Comments
The week before last, I gave a brief 10 minute talk at Glasgow TechMeetup about Lapsus and how I was making it “Smarter than the Average Application”. Heidi, Sam and Ijonas were all really fantastic and made me feel very welcome.
You can see a video of my talk below.
You can also see my slides.
As I said in the talk, I’m looking for Ruby on Rails developers to Alpha test Lapsus. If you’re interested, please get in touch.

I just watched the video. I look forward to what you are developing. It sounds like it will help me AUTOMATICALLY (or easily) track what I do on my computer.
I am a writer and a graphic designer and a woodworker and a pastor of a small home church. Not very busy at all.
I bounce from hither to yon and back again all day at times on my computer. I am slightly compulsive on tracking my time. I use at present, Palm Desktop Calendar and put in my time and events as I remember them. Whew. That’s hard to do as you know when you have several things going at one time. Your system seems to be in the direction I want to go. I have looked at others. I don’t want other people poking around in my computer and broadcasting what I did all day. I want to know what I did all day.
I heard that you are gearing this at present to coders/ developers but I hope it can be used in a broader context. Keep me posted.
Version 1 will only track documents – no web pages or applications just yet. But as long as your time is spent in documents that are held in some kind of rational directory structure, Lapsus should work OK for you. I’ve been targeting it at developers as a way of building a community around the product, but the way it’s going so far is that pretty much anyone could use Lapsus and hopefully it would be helpful. Thanks for your feedback. It’s nice to know that it’s got a wider appeal than my current target market.
