Provide either a view of our day where we can drag and drop tasks on the calander, or provide some sort of round clock – that would allow us to draw when we will be doing tasks from start to finish and fill up our day like a pie graph.
forcing us to prioritize what we are doing with the time in our days.
Also, visual way of presenting this tends to be more freindly to a vast number of people.

I agree zlatko, the round clock was just the most recent example of this being done that i saw…why i mentioned it.
I perfer a linear representation as i seem to have been trying to do something along those lines in all my organization systems – wheather paper excel etc for years and would love nozbe to recognize that we only have x amount of hours in a day and that operating by such time slots also extends willpower and helps people get in the habit of just working by such time slots.

Great post! This idea is in line with some of my thoughts!
I usually distribute my efforts in the following “time slots”:
1) Upon arriving at my workplace (cca. 8-9)
2) In the first part of the workday (9-11)
3) Noon-ish (11-13)
3) In the second part of the workday (13-16)
4) After workhours (16-19)
5) In the evening
For me it would be far easier and effective to appoint tasks to the previously mentioned slots instead of fixing times for Nozbe’s actions or putting appointments in my calendar. This is especially vital for short important actions (like calls, short errands at the workplace).
I think that this could be made using the “WEEK” structure, but instead of having days of weeks – using customizable time segments. Of course, this would require a bit of effort… However, for the beginning, nozbe could provide a DAY view divided in fixed periods (2 or 3 hours).
In regards to the “round clock”, I personally prefer the linear representation of time – therefore the list is better (with time flowing from top to bottom). The round clock, while visually mapping, unconsciously circles us back to the start (instead of making a stop – forcing us to comprehend that the day ends).
Of course, a round clock would require a lot of space on a web page…
All things said – Please provide a “DAY” view within the calendar!
