Tag Filtering.

Just for fun I create a thumbnail dive which mimic a dive computer
display. I was inspired by Black BT layout. I don't know the Petrel
logbook layout :) Of course the classic divelist it's still the best
choice.

Jokes apart, I moved listboxes of my previous mockup to accomodate a
date range selection widget but...
What's the best way to easily and rapidily select a date range?

The amazing examples of faceted search below, filter only by year.

The year bar graph below is a good idea for the stats page... Diving
log has something similar.

I put a search box in the upper right corner. It should be always
visible and it could be a main entry point for the search
functionality without accessing a menu. It could be a free text search
or bounded to the location that in our specific case it's the only
free text field.

Bye
