This probably isn't a good idea. However:
I think it's slightly disconcerting
sometimes to be reading an idea that has
a long history, but a 'lumpy' history - ie,
a
mass of annotations all within a few
days,
then nothing for a year, then it carries on
in a normal rate of additions.
What
I suggest in this idea is to have the
hb software draw a line across the
annotation text
table (the beige of the bottom-row nav
backgrounds would be nice), wherever
there's a big gap in time. Say, six months
or over. I don't know. Something like
that.
That way when we're reading an idea,
and
we see a beige line, we know there's
been
a passage of time, compared to the rest
of
the flow of annotation entries.
It would have to make exception for the
final annotation (which could've been
over
six months ago, but wouldn't need a line
drawn).
Or maybe not. I'm not convinced this
would work.
