Hi guys! I just whipped up a birthday reminder setup in Notion. It’s pretty neat. It figures out when the next birthday is coming up and even tells you how many days are left. Plus, it lets you set different importance levels for each person.
I’m wondering what you all think about it. Would you actually use something like this? Is there anything you’d change?
I’m really curious:
Do the groupings and importance levels make sense to you?
Is it easy to see everything at a glance with the colors and labels I used?
What else should I add to make it better?
I’d really appreciate some honest opinions. What do you think? Is this something you’d find helpful?
I’ve been using Notion for a while, and your birthday reminder system sounds quite well-thought-out. The importance levels are a smart feature, especially for those of us with large social circles. One suggestion: consider adding a column for preferred contact methods. Some people appreciate calls, others texts, and some might prefer physical cards. This could help personalize your birthday greetings. Additionally, have you thought about incorporating a way to track annual spending on gifts? It could be useful for budgeting purposes. Overall, your system seems comprehensive and practical. I’d certainly consider adopting a similar setup for my own use.
Your Notion birthday reminder system sounds pretty impressive, Tom! I’ve been using Notion for a while now, and I never thought to set up something like that. The importance levels are a great touch - helps prioritize who to focus on when multiple birthdays are coming up.
One thing I’d suggest is adding a feature to sync with your calendar app. That way, you don’t have to manually check Notion every day. Maybe even set up email or push notifications for upcoming birthdays?
Also, have you considered including gift ideas or past gifts given in your system? It could be helpful for avoiding repeat presents and planning ahead.
Overall, it seems like a solid setup. I might have to borrow some of your ideas for my own Notion workspace!
thats a cool idea tom! i like the importance levels, smart thinking. maybe add a gift budget column? and a notes section for gift ideas? the colors sound helpful for quick scanning. i’d probably use something like this if it synced with my phone calendar. keep tweaking it!
