Nicky & Adam were daydreaming about a Spotify Wrapped-style Beeminder recap, or Beecap, because bee puns. Maybe next year? How excited would you be to see something like this? What if it was something as basic as this 10 minute dirt simple version (without all the snazz of spotify wrapped):
Another idea: dollars per datapoint. This could be part of promoting the derailing-it-is-nailing-it mindset. If you think of every datapoint as a unit of awesomeness achieved with Beeminder (except, um, do-less goals) then that’s a nice way to feel good about what you’re paying in derailments maybe?
love it! and am definitely in the camp of “the more metrics, the better.”
as far as the presentation goes, i’ll always prefer a dirt simple version like this draft (<3) to the infuriating snazz of spotify wrapped.
I got something like this from Focusmate [1] yesterday and I briefly thought “this is nice” and “I should suggest that Beeminder does something similar” before moving on with my life.
Maybe it could be effective as a marketing tool (maybe somebody is going to try out Focusmate because I pasted the screenshot below), but UX improvements and integrations seem more important.
i got it from skritter, but that one had overall-stats, not personal stats, which was interesting as well. (apparently people spent over 30 years on skritter in 2023.)
i will add that if done, it should take all of the year into account, not just ignore a whole month or shift it to the following year or whatever spotify wrapped does with december.
