To everybody freaking out: It's a todo list, that stores your info in your dropbox rather than the sites database[1]. Brilliant idea, terrible execution.
If I was the person that developed this, I would have spent <$25 on themeforest.net and tossed up a simple splash page with a call-to-action button and a short description of what it does. No one in their right mind is going to blindly hook up their dropbox to a blank site.
We added a little description to the homepage. We took the original idea of splash screens, introductions and whatever come to mind and reduced it to the bare bones. Clearly it was too much.
It's very simple todo application. It saved your data on your Dropbox account using the new Datastore api. Source is available here https://github.com/gvnn/today-tomorrow
We kept it very simple :) We'll add a description for sure. The source code is available at https://github.com/gvnn/today-tomorrow so you can have a look
As others said, this landing page doesn't tell me anything, let alone sell me on connecting my Dropbox. You can update it, but I still won't try it knowing that you have a habit of doing things with user data without full disclosure.
As good an idea as this is, how is this on the frontpage?
I don't mean this is a nasty way, but with a single page which basically says, "can I access your data please?" and no explanation I can't understand who would upvote it?
Building a "nasty" application wasn't our objective. The application is really minimalistic and clearly we shrink it too much. We added a little description now and the application code is available here https://github.com/gvnn/today-tomorrow
You can't expect people to connect their accounts with no information on what they're about to use. Please add some more information on the details of the application on the home page.
