Hi everyone!
One thing I’ve been thinking of doing for a while is running a sort of “drop-in clinic”/“office hours”. In theory, I’d make myself available for a given timeslot and set up a room on something like Jitsi. Anyone who has a question they’d like to ask or something they’d like to go through via screen share can connect and ask the question, and we’ll see what I can do.
I’m imagining that this would be things like “how do I set up a goal to do X” or “can you walk me through how to remove a break from a goal using graph.beeminder.com”, rather than bug reports or suggestions – stuff that may not be easy for support to explain via email, or perhaps even stuff we’d normally be unable to cover via email like how to do more detailed graph tweaks. We definitely wouldn’t be able to cancel derailments for you via that medium, since the email trail is important, but we could potentially do things like add breaks for you or help you change a Toggl do-more goal into a do-less goal, and things like that.
Sessions would not be recorded, and if they work out I’d try to have them regularly, at a range of times. It’d be a first come, first served basis, but if someone had a really long query then I’d probably check in with anyone waiting and check I can’t help them in two seconds flat or something like that.
At the moment, weekend sessions would be unlikely, but if there is interest then it’s something I might do once a month or something like that.
To be totally clear: no sessions are planned yet, and I’m just gathering information about whether folks would be interested and whether there are times it would be viable to run them. For this to go ahead, I need to a) gauge interest and b) decide on a time when I’d run these sessions. So, three polls!
