tasks: I told him not to pick Boston, but to pick florence.
he tried to click on a particular place shown by the map.
he looked around the map to pick places.
wants a search feature for the map where you can find restaurants.
he manually plans for walking time, though didn't include enough.
the autocomplete for places doesn't really succeed in finding things that well.
It would be good if you could click on the map to pick a place.
if they type a full name, I should search for the location with google maps
he thought of the idea that he could drag the thing to where he
wants to go. that worked well, but placing it there, it did not stay.
his loop is: seach in the map for interesting places, then type in the name.
he knows how delete works.
The tabs are pretty intuitive.
the start and end time should be shown 
"how do I save?" we should have a way to email the schedule or something at least.
the autocomplete should recognise a category name and show options for that.
the location of a specific place is not actually being selected.
It should pop to the nearest place matching that category.
clicking on the pin, the nature of the info displayed is non-obvious.
It is not obvious what the start and end times are.
took a while to discover that you can lock something.
It is hard to lock things because clicking the lock is hard (fatfingers).
redo doesn't completely reverse the operation.
selecting an event should scroll to the event.
Changing the time fucks everything up.
It removes the schedulegrid.
Undo fixes that.
And then he somehow breaks everything and cannot create activities.
"""There should be a button that just says "pick shit for me to do"
that picks the top-10 things.""" (I disagree with this.)
He did not use autoschedule.

Design

Structure and flow

The final design is three-part/column and has the following structure:

...

How the schedule column changes when an activity is added (what if the new activity overlaps some other activity's time slot?) is an important question.  We address this below in "Scheduling Algorithms (Controller)".

Platform

SMak is meant to be used on the go, when the user is traveling.  The UI is currently a web browser application which has been ported to an iPad for portability reasons.

Design evolution

TODO: what we learned from the first three checkpoints.
