I'm thinking about using context parsing as in "I need to go to the store tomorrow" will add the event "I need to go to the store" to the calendar for tomorrow.
But for some things I need a certain structure like this: "Wait for Bob to finish report, do whatever". And "wait for Bob" would send an email off to Bob that he needs to finish the report.
I want to know how easy it would be to train a user to follow that structure for certain things and would like to know if any users had trouble with something like RTML.
Livejournal uses something vaguely similar (a special HTML-y tag that creates an automatic link to a particular user's journal). If you use a known schema like "Getting Things Done" (http://www.43folders.com/2004/09/08/getting-started-with-getting-things-done/ ), users can represent a task in a hierarchy of Context/Goal/Project/Task (so Store/Prepare dinner/Buy ingredients/Go to store).
