a few comments after using it for a couple of days (not on my primary account):

a. The privacy policy should be a little more clear about the data (if any) being accessed from Gmail. Email is something around which people (or just me) take privacy seriously. The privacy policy is well written (not canned legalese), but does not cover issues around what kinds of data is collected. Rapportive (http://rapportive.com/privacy), also a YC startup has a very fresh approach to privacy policies.

b. at least for me, one of the best things about gmail are the keyboard shortcuts. Sparrow (http://www.sparrowmailapp.com/) does a great job of respecting gmail shortcuts.

c. Maybe they already have keyboard shortcuts, no way to know as there is no help or manual or faqs. (Not sure they need one either)

Thanks for this Mohit - we take privacy very seriously, and only collect the necessary data to auto-complete collaborators emails within the widget.

Key board shortcuts are a great idea, that definitely increases accessibility and speed.

We do have a user guide: http://www.taskforceapp.com/guide - and we also maintain a getsatisfaction page.
