Include a notes/diary section.

I vote for both.

I can see how having a notes field for each activity would be useful, but I'd also just like a generic notes field for things not related to specific activities.

Thanks Sean!

Notes without a project specified could show up under the list of projects and be always visible.
Notes with a project specified show up attached to that project, like a little icon you can click on to view the note(s), maybe in the same way that you hover over the time for your projects to view graphs.

It would be nice if notes could be assigned to a specific time or bubble. I've been using David Seah's charts prior to BubbleTimer and made heavy use of the timeline on the bottom for showing what I did during large blocks of the day or making note of events. For example: I use it to track when I take certain medications and how it affects my productivity. Sometimes I write a note saying why I was sidetracked or what went wrong. Or I use it to schedule breaks like the "unschedule".

I understand this is probably a more complex thing to code. It's hard to beat the flexibility of paper. :)

I'd like to be able to click "new note" and then have the option of clicking on a time and then type from that point below. Sort of like a mini journal or notes thing.

Here is an incredibly poor mock up of what I had in mind:

Any thoughts?

Another great feature. I like. I like.

I'm loving the notes so far! The simple implimentation (one note per task) is enough for me. The note per day is a little bonus. The way they appear on the report is good too.

BTW I saw the notes appear yesterday afternoon sometime and was like 'what? how long have these notes been here? did I miss the announcement?!' still, I started using them right away because it was so obvious how to use them :-)
