Blossom
Ever wonder where all those hours went in your day? Blossom helps you prioritize and stay on task in a fun way. The Blossom plant responds to your productivity!
Choose a virtual plant to illustrate achievement of your goals. Create criteria that feed it and criteria that neglect it. For example, to feed it: Actively use Excel or Photoshop. To Neglect it: Actively use World of Warcraft or browse blogs on Safari. IF your plant is healthy and flowering, you know you’re meeting your goals. Consistently failing to meet one’s goals will slowly wilt the plant. Clicking on the plant can display stats of current health, graphs of app usage, and suggestions of what to work on next to meet your goals.
- The magic happens in the background, all you normally see is your growing (or wilting) plant.
- Smart reports. Blossom predicts and reports what you need to do next to stay on track.
- Easy custom settings. Set Profiles, such at “Work 9-5pm”.
- Dynamically generated, unique plants for each different user. Photoshoppers with a mild Warcraft habit may see more colorful, blooming flowers with some thorns.
- Place additional plants on your desktop with different health settings. For example, one plant can visualize personal productivity, while another represents work productivity.
- The user community can create add-ons such as Tamagotchi-style pets, building of a bridge/city/other animated lifeform responding to health criteria.
