Oh yeah, I know of Rando and that was definitely a source of inspiration - will add it to the list :)

I agree that you don't want the documented form of this to feel like a party favor (good analogy!) or takeaway, but I do think there is something compelling about transforming the visualization itself into something more permanent. Maybe it's just a matter of experimenting with different forms (someone suggested tissue paper I think)?

Something I think is especially interesting about this idea is that it flips the red-notification dot problem on its head; currently those badges all over our apps (can you tell I hate them?) exploit our psychological need to check for new information, even though 99% percent of the time (it feels like at least), said information turns out to be trivial and not worth our attention at that moment. I think it's really cool that you're using that an already familiar form-factor (a small badge with a number on it) in order to encourage the OPPOSITE behavior, i.e. convincing someone they don't need to check their phone right now. I'm actually really curious to find out if this would change people's behavior...you should test it, even in its low-fidelity state!

Yeah that's valid...I just felt that HIS arguments were really poorly crafted in general.

What did you think of present shock? I kind of hated it.

"A fun way to change a recipe is to drop something in the middle of it."

I'm going to remember this comment every time I cook something again, ever.

...I would also suggest adding spinach to the pasta sauce...you can throw in a TON of the stuff and it'll cook right down.
