A few ideas here have been discussed already. From Desk accessory / widget ideas, a few worth calling out:
- pomodoro timer (also requested Pomodoro support for cards)
- writer tools like character/word count: connect cards to widget and it would update with stats.
- general space stats (number of cards, connections, orphans, todos, etc)
- youtube widget for taking notes (this one takes some more explaining). Let’s assume you implement that feature where if you start making a connection and mouseup in open space, it automatically creates a card and puts you in edit mode. With that context, this widget would be an embedded youtube, but when you drag to make a new connected card, it would pre-fill the youtube link with timestamp (maybe markdown linked). This would let you watch a youtube lecture, for example, and take notes linked to specific times of the lecture more easily.
