Very good "Your browser is not compliant page." The Opera browser is CSS3, 3D Transform, Node.js capable. If you are doing certification using a browser check, do the following: Tell the user their website is not optimized for their browser, suggest the browsers as you have it on your site, then provide the user with the option to continue ahead with their current browser. Here is a link to the logo so you can add it…

I am working on Opera, I tested it half-way but it has some issues I will have to work out before it will work perfectly.

Thanks for including the Opera browser!

Love it. Great design. Some thoughts: - I tried to drag some tasks from "today" to "tomorrow" and couldn't. Ended up marking a task as done instead. - The animation when you click the arrows is a little confusing and hard to follow.

Seconded. The design is just great.

I also tried drag and drop. Both between today and tomorrow and a way to change the ordering. It'd be great to see that functionality.

Really nice work, guys!

Very svelte! Maybe I'm being an idiot - but how do you turn the pages? I can only see today and tomorrow.

Do It (Tomorrow) is based on a simple concept where you can just look at what you have to do today and push less important things to later. The "days" aren't literal dates, add todos to today - they will stay on that page forever until you cross them off or delete them. The pages are more like 'now' and 'later', at least that's how I use it. Boing Boing did a nice review of the iPhone App and they explained the conce…

Yeah the way I do it I have two todo lists- one for Today, and one for This Week. Each night I move stuff from my This Week list into my Today list to be done the next day. That's how I will use this.

Can you do a full breakdown of how this was built? Love the page flipping transition!

The Page Flip is in Chrome and Safari, but when I started it was going to just be a perk for Safari as Chrome didn't support 3d perspectives. I noticed one day that the beta channel of Chrome had started to support 3d perspectives, but to my distress their support was buggy and left graphical artifacts. I submitted bug reports and luckily in the latest Chromes it works just as nicely as Safari. The big thing I got in…

Just curious, but why'd you decide to use nginx instead of a node-based web server (i.e. serving stuff up via Express)?

This is cool. I'm one of the guys who makes WorkFlowy.com, so I always check out new to-do/list making apps. I'm almost always like, "This is super lame," but not this time. This app actually seems quite nice. I'd like to be able to flip forward/backward in the planner, as that aligns with the metaphor nicely.

Anyway, nice work.

Obviously you are shooting for a realistic UI. I don't think the current strikethrough image is very realistic since I do not draw the same line every time I cross an item out in real life. I suggest you make use of a sprite image to implement multiple lines.

At first I wanted to be able to flip forward / backward as well, but on second thought, maybe only being able to add todo's for today and tomorrow is a plus ?
