Alright guys, so today I wanna tell you about this thing called dodaj. Sounds weird? Yeah I thought so too at first. Heard people talking about how it saves time, so I figured why not try it out myself. Got frustrated right away though – that homepage just shows a blank screen! No instructions, nothing.
Just Staring at a Blank Page
Seriously, you open it up and it’s like looking at fresh snow. Blank white screen, tiny box in the middle. I’m sitting there clicking everywhere like an idiot. Ctrl+F5’d like crazy thinking my browser broke. Even googled “dodaj blank screen problem” – useless. Totally ready to give up.
Figured Out the Trick
Got angry and slammed my coffee cup down. Boom! Liquid spills ON my keyboard. Panicked, grabbed tissues. While wiping… noticed a tiny flashing line inside the box. Accidentally hit a key while cleaning. Letter appeared in the box. Mind blown. You just start typing IN that little box. Could’ve slapped myself. It wasn’t broken – that’s just the way it works!
Making It Actually Useful
Started typing random words:
- Typed “buy milk” – nothing
- Added “@today” – turned red!
- Tried “fix bike tire @tomorrow” – turned blue.
Lightbulb moment: You add @[time] tags to tell dodaj when something needs doing. Took a few more tries to get it:
- “Call mom” = just sits there grey (I forgot the @)
- “Call mom @tonight” = yellow glow, nice!
- “Pay bills @nextweek” = purple, done.
Put in 5 things real quick:
- Email boss update @2pm
- Grocery shopping @today
- Dentist @nextmonth
- Water plants @evening
- Birthday gift @friday
Each one instantly colored based on the time tag. Magic! No “save” button or anything. Close browser, reopen – there all my stuff is.
Stuck? Remember These 3 Things
Cut through the confusion:
- Open it. Just open the darn page.
- Click the box. See the blinking line? Good.
- Type what needs doing + @[when]. Examples:
Pickup dry cleaning @todayResearch trip @nextweekSend cards @sunday
That’s genuinely IT. No buttons to press. It figures out the rest. Color codes things based on urgency. Survives closing your browser. Weirdly simple once you get past the emptiness.
Wasted 20 minutes fighting the blank screen. Now I chuck tasks in there faster than tossing laundry into a basket. My roommate saw it and laughed – “Looks broke.” Showed him the three steps. His reaction? “Oh. That’s… actually stupid easy.” Exactly.
