Advance apologies for the partial rant, but I thought I would share the following CRIMP related story for your amusement and as a possible warning. As you may recall, I have not been happy with my ta...

Thanks for posting your sample. I can see this being incorporated into blogs, especially for those that incorporate a lot of media. It has potential. --Ken

Thanks for the additional information. Despite my criticisms, I am still interested. I wanted to try the beta, but the sign-up requires that you have a MS account, and the account that I want to lin...

Thanks for posting this. It looks like a cross between Powerpoint and the latest in web page designs. I am not a big fan of the new trend in horizontal scrolling that is being used so much these day...

I am trying out Todoist as well as trying to see if I can create a better view in Asana by using their search and filtering options as opposed to their recommended views. I think that is the best way...

I am feeling a bit like Charlie Brown wanting to kick the football every time I start exploring new task managers. I have been using Asana for some time, and find that it offers many useful features,...

Speaking of CintaNotes... 3/29/2015

Quick question for CintaNotes Pro users. Can you search across multiple notebooks if they are all open? The trial version only allows you to open one notebook at a time. I sent a question to the de...

Thank you for the suggestions. I am looking at several of them, but only have a bit of time to do more research right now, so I'll throw out my initial observations: Cintanotes - Clean, fast interfa...
