1 [[!meta title="Doodle Killer"]]
3 Hey guys, I heard there was this app called [Doodle](http://www.doodle.com/main.html). It's closed source. Let's make an open-source Doodle killer and call it Clockworks!
5 We have a mailing list - if you're interested in helping design the app, or if you just want to hear more about what we're up to, just blanche yourself onto **clockworks**.
9 Doodle clone. 100% duplication of Doodle functionality. Modifications to improve usability as necessary.
11 What do people not like about Doodle?
14 * No obvious "I can, but would rather not"
18 * Python and Turbogears
20 * Use 15 minute timeslices to simplify interface (?)
30 To be transferred from the whiteboard
34 List of "screens" in Doodle
37 * Help pages (screencasts, interactive JavaScript, etc.)
38 * Schedule event (should be one-page-able)
39 * General info (title, description, name, email)
40 * Days (calendar, should be AJAX)
41 * Times (timezone (JS fill-in), add more timeslots, copypaste first row)
42 * Options (yes-no-ifneedbe, hidden poll, limit OKs)
43 * Poll created (admin, participant links)
44 * View poll (timezone, name, times, information, functions)
45 * Edit entry (completely wiki!)
48 * Calendar export (both ways)
49 * File export (excel, pdf)
50 * Subscribe (atom, and then social feed services)
52 * Admin poll (participation link)
53 * Edit poll (all original options)
55 * Delete all participants/comments
60 Doodle killer. Extra features. Pump it up.
