rickpastooron Clockwise acquired by Salesforce

Hey, Rise founder here and the one that wrote the sunsetting post–thanks for mentioning it. We obviously followed Clockwise closely and I actually had a great chat with Matt post-shutdown. Can only have respect for how long Clockwise managed to exist and for the way they now handle the shutdown (indeed not handing over that data is a classy move).

Here's more on my book (out in NL and sold >60k copies self published, will be out internationally later this year): gripboek.nl/english

Emiel worked on Blendle, Tidal and a ton of other really pretty products.

And obviously we'll show more of the product as soon as we have it :)

> Anything that doesn't involve meeting with other people or me being in a different location for a period of time doesn't go in a calendar

Experimenting with using a calendar for work can – in my experience working with hundreds of people – have a dramatically positive impact on they people work. Give it a go :)

What's a feature of Outlook that's underappreciated most?

We're not sure, we'll find out if it meets our high expectations :)

Thanks for sharing. For tons of people using your calendar to actually schedule work is a new concept (probably not for you and most people here). In my experience it can be very powerful to map out your work and see that you're fully booked and need to start making different decisions.

Looking forward to bring something delightful and with a fresh perspective to guide that process.

The reason for sharing our thinking early is actually a way to gather feedback at the point in time where we're able to include it in the product. But I totally see your perspective and probably won't be able to convince you of our intentions, which is fine :)
