Abstract

A computer-implemented method of display of project management timelines is presented in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure. In various embodiments, the method includes displaying a spinning spiral temporal element with spiral rings, starting from a center and moving outwards over time, including one or more stars disposed on the rings in chronological order of present importance, wherein each star includes a folder; selecting a star in the closest orbit; and displaying a page containing the selected star at the center of a spinning spiral temporal element with spiral rings, starting from a center and moving outwards over time, including one or more planets disposed on the rings in chronological order of present importance, wherein each planet includes a folder. The planet includes at least one of contact info, contract, scope of work, or time frame.

Claims

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A computer-implemented method of display of project management timelines, the method comprising:
 displaying a temporal element with rings, starting from a first location of the temporal element and moving towards a second location of the temporal element over time;   displaying, on a display, a task list, the task list including one or more tasks due on a particular day;   determining if one task of the one or more tasks is swiped on the display;   changing a translucence of the task based on the determination; and   setting time parameters for time-sensitive tasks wherein a user is notified about a time-sensitive task.   
     
     
         2 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 1 , wherein the temporal element includes one or more first projects disposed on the rings in chronological order,
 wherein each project of the one or more first projects includes a folder, and   wherein the method further includes:
 selecting a first project from the one or more first projects; 
 displaying a page containing the selected first star at the center of a temporal element with spiral rings, starting from a center and moving outwards over time, including one or more second projects disposed on the rings in chronological order of present importance, wherein each second project includes a folder 
 selecting a second project; and 
 displaying a page containing the selected second project at the center of a temporal element with rings, starting from a center and moving outwards over time, including one or more third projects disposed on the rings in chronological order of present importance, wherein each third project includes a folder. 
   
     
     
         3 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 1 , wherein at least one of comets or events, approach a center as a date draws closer. 
     
     
         4 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 1 , wherein the temporal element further includes a predetermined number of subdivisions configured to organize each star,
 wherein each star aligns with one of the predetermined number of subdivisions.   
     
     
         5 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 2 , wherein the third project includes at least one of contact info, contract, scope of work, upload documents, or time frame. 
     
     
         6 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 1 , further including the ability to collaborate and interact with select members within the project by at least one of email, text, video, or chat by sending an entity to a recipient. 
     
     
         7 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 1 , further including:
 sending at least one of videos, texts, or e-mails to at least one of an existing member or a non-member, to permit two-way collaboration and interaction between sender and recipient; and   restricting information which a recipient is permitted to see and access.   
     
     
         8 . The computer-implemented method of  claim 1 , further including:
 transmitting a notification, to a recipient, that a user has sent them information relevant to a project or task;   receiving, by the recipient, the notification;   displaying by a notification icon that a notification is available; and   
       access, by the recipient, the information from a notification icon based on tapping on the notification. 
     
     
         9 . A computer-implemented method of display of project management timelines comprising:
 dragging and dropping at least one first element from a first area to a second area, the at least one first element includes at least one of a main project, a task, a business task, or a personal task;
 wherein the second area includes a temporal element with spiral rings, starting from a center and moving outwards over time; 
 wherein the second area is set from at least one of an hour, a day, a week, a month, or a year; 
 wherein the at least one first element includes a due date; 
 wherein after the dragging and dropping, the least one first element is displayed in chronological order on the temporal element; 
   moving the at least one first element along the temporal element based on at least one of a current time or a current date;   selecting one at least one first element;   accessing information contained within the at least one first element; and   displaying, on a display, a task list, the task list including one or more tasks due on a particular day;   determining if one task of the one or more tasks is swiped on the display;   changing a translucence of the task based on the determination; and   setting time parameters for time-sensitive tasks wherein a user is notified about a time-sensitive task.   
     
     
         10 . A system for display of project management timelines comprising:
 a processor; and   a memory that is coupled to the processor and stores one or more computer-readable instructions, wherein the computer-readable instructions cause, when executed by the processor, the system to:
 display a first temporal element with spiral rings, starting from a center and moving outwards over time; 
 display, on a display, a task list, the task list including one or more tasks due on a particular day; 
 determine if one task of the one or more tasks is swiped on the display; 
 change a translucence of the task based on the determination; and 
 set time parameters for time-sensitive tasks wherein a user is notified about a time-sensitive task. 
   
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the first temporal element includes one or more first projects disposed on the rings in chronological order of present importance, wherein each star includes a folder, and
 wherein the instructions when executed further cause the system to:   select a first project of the one or more first projects;   display a page containing the selected star at the center of a temporal element with spiral rings, starting from a center and moving outwards over time, including one or more second projects disposed on the rings in chronological order of present importance, wherein each second project includes a folder;   select a second project; and   display a page containing the selected second project at the center of a temporal element with spiral rings, starting from a center and moving outwards over time, including one or more third project disposed on the rings in chronological order of present importance, wherein each third project includes a folder.
