Meeting running order
Puts a clock time on every item and says whether the agenda fits the booking.
It runs entirely in this browser tab: nothing you type is uploaded, and nothing here counts down, rings or records.
Settings
- Starts at
- A clock time: 9:30, 09:30 and 9.30 all read.
- Booked for
- Minutes the room is booked for. Nought leaves the comparison out. A number from 0 to 480.
- Changeover
- Minutes between items. Five items with two minutes between them is eight minutes nobody put on the agenda. A number from 0 to 10.
- Show each item's share
- Of the talking time, not of the booking.
How to use it
- Paste your text into the box above, or open a file.
- Adjust the settings beside it until the result is what you wanted.
- Copy the result, or save it as a file. The result updates as you type.
Questions
- Why is there no click counter or reaction timer?
- Because both are a button and a clock, and this page is a function from one text to one result. A reaction timer that measured a browser's own scheduling delay would be reporting the wrong number confidently, which is worse than not shipping it. All eight of the group's device tools are named on the hub instead.
- Does the break schedule remind me?
- No. There is no clock, no notification and no code here that could make one. What it does is write the day out in advance — work, breaks and lunch in the middle of whatever day you gave — so you can print it or put it in a calendar that does ring.
- Will the printed ruler be the right size?
- It will if your printer does not scale the page, which is what the hundred-millimetre check bar is for: hold a ruler against it. The drawing is an SVG whose width is stated in millimetres, so the size is in the file rather than in the viewer.
- Does the decision matrix tell me what to choose?
- No, and it says so on every result. It multiplies your scores by your weights, which makes your own judgement visible; a matrix that came out the way you hoped is a matrix you weighted. What it adds is how close the top two were.
