nice start. i signed up. looking forward to mobile version.

some observations:

items -> stacks, items -> folders, folders -> stacks, stacks -> desktop. each item can only be in single folder. copies of items can go into different folders. drag item to copier machines to duplicate.

Thank you :) Did you like the wireframes for the mobile version ? Is that the way you would imagine it ?

I’m not sure what you mean by Stacks … and copier machine ? For me an item can be copied and pasted anywhere.

  • I THINK they mean that once you move like-items they auto group into stacks?

    Also I THINK they mean, create a little copier machine icon where you can drag items to and out pops a copy of it.

    Basically, extending the " physical environment" aspect of this app. I actually quite like both ideas, but for the stacks could see things getting accidentally grouped too easily. So maybe some friction to auto grouping.

    • Hmm I like the idea of stacks I must say. In fact replicating something that’s very real in the physical world. And a Copier machine ok I guess I see the idea. So you could put more than one item in there at a time, I guess ? Otherwise not much point, no? It’s like a temporary place to put stuff you’re moving around. I like the idea.

      Thanks !!
