新APP填滿日程表 幫你"裝忙"
App fills your calendar so you can pretend to be busy
Your friend is moving Saturday. Are you free to help?
你的朋友周六要搬家,你有空去幫忙嗎?
The real answer is yes. The honest answer is no, because you're a human being and not a forklift. And also because you guys aren't really that close.
實際的回答是"有空".最誠實的回答是"沒空".因為你是一個人而不是一臺升降機.而且,你們關系也沒那么近.
If only you had something else planned so it would be easier to say no...
要是你有其他計劃,那么你拒絕起來就會容易一些.
"Got This Thing" is just that. The Web app uses your phone's location to populate your Google calendar with local stuff that's happening, pulled from public event information on sites like Eventbrite.
"Got This Things"正是你需要的.這款網絡應用通過手機定位,用當地正在舉行的一些活動填滿你的谷歌日程表,而這些活動信息都是從Eventbrite(一個在線活動策劃服務平臺)等平臺提供的公共事件信息中獲取的.
Click on the "Get Busy" button and in an instant -- your blank schedule turns into a confetti of things to do.
點擊"忙碌"按鈕,你那空白的時間表立即變得五顏六色,填滿各種事項.
You can add different categories, such as "Unquestionable Charity Events" and "Legit Lectures," and share your fake calendar of real events with other people, so you can support each other with your lies.
你可以添加不同的類別,比如"無可非議的慈善活動"、"法律講座"等,還可以與其他人分享真實事件的假日程表,這樣你們就可以互相打掩護了.
You can even choose how busy you want to appear.
你甚至還能選擇你想展現出來的忙碌程度.
There are three degrees: "Busy," "Super Busy," and one called "Go F--- Yourself," which basically drops dozens of overlapping events into one time slot.
有三個程度可供選擇:"忙碌"、"超級忙碌"、還有一個叫做"別理我",這個程度基本就是在同一個時間段安排好幾件事情.
When you want to get rid of all the stuff you added, just click "Go Clear."
當你想清除掉所有已添加的事項時,只需點擊"清空".
