If you’re looking for a straightforward way to track your to-do’s, organize projects, and keep yourself on track, you might find what you need with "Smart To-Do List." This Windows-based application helps you create projects, track progress, rate task importance, and filter your tasks.

Eluma opens it up [Genuine Curiosity]
Last month, I wrote about Eluma 2.0 (Eluma: Browse, organize, and share) which is a pretty cool tool for organizing, sharing, and tracking web-based information (web sites, RSS, web clippings, etc.) on Windows XP and Windows Vista. At the time of my original review, Eluma was in private beta.
Good news: Eluma has unleashed the [...]
Control for team projects [Genuine Curiosity]
I’ve been test driving a web-based project management tool called Projjex, and it is pretty cool. I’m using the free version, which is limited to a single project (but supports multiple users/participants for that project. Even with the single-project limitation, the free version of Projjex does a nice job of showing off the UI and [...]
Mindmanager GTD templates [Productivity Workflows]
I recently had to use a backup of this blog to re-import its content. As a result some of the links are no longer working, but I do not have time to check them at the moment. If you are looking for the Mindmanager GTD templates I released ages ago, you can find them at [...]
Xobni - a very interesting Outlook tool [Genuine Curiosity]
I have been kicking the tires on a product called Xobni for the past week or so, and am fascinated by this useful tool. Xobni (inboX backwards) is a “plug-in” to Outlook that integrates seamlessly with Outlook, providing a real-time “dashboard” for Outlook (you can see what it looks like in the video preview at [...]
Eluma: Browse, organize, and share [Genuine Curiosity]
I do a lot of online research on a variety of topics - work, personal, etc. However, I’m not very methodical about cataloging the links I find. As a result, I have a lot of unruly bookmarks (favorites) that I’ve accumulated. I save some of them “just in case,” others I intend to check periodically [...]
Juicy apple bites: Mac and iPhone scoop [Genuine Curiosity]
I have a couple of interesting, Apple-related tidbits to share with you - and they might be interesting whether you use a Mac or not.
First, Mozy has released a Mac version of their online backup product (see my earlier review of Mozy, which I use at home). In honor of this new release, they [...]
A deal on NitroPDF Professional through May 7 [Genuine Curiosity]
For a long time now, NitroPDF Professional has been my top recommendation for creating, editing, annotating, and combining PDF files. I reviewed NitroPDF in full a couple of years back, and I like their latest version (v5) even more than when I started using it back in the day.
I just got an email offer from [...]
Tools for connecting in business [Genuine Curiosity]
I’ve been a little quiet this week due to a hectic schedule, but wanted to let you know that I posted about LinkedIn and Plaxo on the Joyful Jubilant Learning blog yesterday. If you haven’t already seen it, and are interested in tools that can help you with your business and (to some degree) [...]
A few for Friday (18-April-08) [Genuine Curiosity]
Here are a few of the good links and fun items I’ve run across this past week.
The “Now Defunct Museum”
The Now Defunct Museum is a Squidoo lens dedicated to remembering some of the things that once seemed everywhere, but now have vanished from our everyday lives. Very entertaining - I like the picture of the [...]
