point of view (based off shooting this screenshot to a few potential clients of
mine), I would be confused on the difference between the Activities and
Calendar (ie. “Isn’t my activities supposed to be scheduled in the
calendar) and on why they are not “two in one” like the approach
Outlook takes in listing dated scheduled events (Calendar) and undated
scheduled/unscheduled events (Activities/ToDo). Consolidation might be a better
approach as the lesser options the user sees, yet while making facilities *<b><span

<br>
Here is an update. In the next few days, hopefully for beta.. (or post
beta. ) all empty list views will be shown like the UI listed below. <br>
<br>
A message will be displayed in the middle of the empty list with links to
create a new record. For example, in the empty ACTIVITES view, two links (one
for CREATE AN EVENT and one for CREATE A TODO) will be displayed. This way,
when installed for the first time.. a novice or newbie can start adding records
within few seconds. <br>
<br>
If you have any suggestions or ideas about any add-ons, let me know soon.<br>
<br>
