Feature ideas for timezone.io
  • Ability to set work hours.

    I work between 3-11 PM and would like to be show online (like not having my gravatar greyed out or something else) at say, 10 PM

  • Ability to set a status message like “Away for lunch” or “On a medical leave” etc.

  • Ability to see more information about a user (like Polymail) when I say, click on the user's profile picture

    More user information

    This is just a nice to have

I like these ideas @nisanth074!

  1. The first idea is definitely one I'd like to add! timezoneio/timezoneio#3
  2. The status idea is cool, I wonder if that could be a version two add for the working hours, the ability to set yourself as "on vacation" or out
  3. I used to use clicking on a user's face as a way to schedule a meeting with someone, but now that that feature is gone, I like your idea on a potential slide out frame with more information. It could additionally have a quick way to suggest a meeting time, i.e. "Your work hours overlap during 10am-2pm EDT"

I'm a little hesitant about adding lots of profile information to turn it into a social network of sorts, but it could be useful! What information do you think would be useful for a member of your team?
