Garett Rogers on Google Calendar Task

Garrett Rogers has spent some time productively poking at the javascript in Google Calendar, and surmises that completeable tasks are soon to be rolled out:

I found some code that suggests they will be adding completable events — or “tasks”. This would be nice because the only thing that even resembles a task is an all day event — and you can’t mark them as completed or carry them forward.

od.prototype.completable = function(a,b){ alert(“UNIMPLEMENTED completable”) };od.prototype.completions = function(a,b){ alert(“UNIMPLEMENTED completions”) };od.prototype.oncomplete = function(a,b,c,d){ } (see how the function for “oncomplete” does nothing?)

Google really does listen to their users — a task list is a heavily requested feature of people using this service in the Google Calendar Help group.
