Software Guy – Story

Vijay was ocuppied with lot of thoughts when he was driving his bike home after a long days work. The clock had already crossed 10:30 p.m. The bright coloured t-shirt and slightly faded jeans with woodlands shoe were enough to prove that it was end of that work week. Like most of the young men with slightly better academic performance above average, Vijay also entered the software world just two years ago. His new position as the unofficial team lead of the team with which he had been since he joined the company as a fresher made it clear why he was occupied with lot of thoughts. (more…)

Sprintask Bug Fix – IE Compatibility Issue Solved

Bug: Today one of my friends sent me a screen shot of a major bug encountered while opening http://sprintask.vibgy.com in IE6. It’s a javascript error.

Cause: There is timer which removes the red label directing new users to help. When the timer times out, it calls a function. Inside this function, new object variable is created for the div container containing the anchor link image. Then it tries to remove the 2nd child node of the container. It succeeds in chrome and firefox, because while rendering both of them create 2 child nodes inside the div container. But IE creates only one child. So trying to remove the 2nd child fails.

Fix: Instead of trying to remove the child of the container, I created another object for the parent of the container. And then removed the container itself from its parent.

I also removed an ugly outline coming around the red label in Firefox and IE.

Sprintask Bug Fixed: Wrong month in whitearea

Sprintask Error Fixed

Sprintask Error Fixed

Bug: When the task details are added to the white area, the month was showing 1 for Feb, which should be 2.

Cause: In javascript getMonth() function returns a number representing the month starting from 0 to 11. But this is not how we understand month.

Fix: Put getMonth()+1 in the script

Sprintask Beta – Cooking

It has been a long time since Sprintask has been released. Though it has been an hobbyist project, I’ve used it extensively for my own purpose and found it very effective in tracking time in different tasks.

After collecting many recommendations from the users (mostly my friends), I started to develop a new version of Sprintask. In few days I’m planning to release the beta version of it. So stay tuned for the all new Sprintask for you.

Sprintask Launched

Sprintask has been launched with minimal features. One feature which I really wanted to do before uploading was the ability to login. I may need couple of weekends to finish it. I want to give a new verb name for what you do in sprintask.vibgy.com. How about you sprintask in sprintask.vibgy.com?

Sprintask Launch

Sprintask Launch

Open the link http://sprintask.vibgy.com and click on the gray colored bar to start with. It turns yellow to show its editable now. Type in an activity/task you are doing and press enter. Now it turns green marking that you’ve started doing that particular activity. A new gray bar is added to add new tasks. After sometime when you want to stop the current activity, just click on the green bar. It turns red marking the sprintask has been stopped. Use the whitearea (which shows ‘current chunk time taken’, ‘total time taken’, ‘end time’, ‘start time’, ‘task description’) to take reports. Simply copy it and paste in a spreadsheet to get fancy charts. Play along by adding new sprintasks, starting and stopping them. Have fun and become more productive.

Post your comments and recommendations in this blog post to improve the tool. Happy sprintasking…
