Activities vs Projects

Activities are different from projects and should be separated. Activities in slife are focused on applications or sets of applications, which is great, activities are needed - I have a useful activity called data analysis that includes several applications I commonly use to analyze data. I have several different research projects where I do data analysis as well as other activities like taking notes, reading, writing. It doesn't make sense to have a project in the same bucket as an activity, it needs a separate list that acts differently. Firstly there needs to be some manual component because slife can't tell when I'm reading a web page about mysql while I'm working on one project versus reading a very similar page while working on another project - maybe it can under some circumstances but I need to be able to override it since it won't be perfect. I'm sure there are strategies that slife can use to recognize when I switch projects, folder naming or whatever, but this is a fundamentally different thing than an activity and encompasses activities.
