Manage Your Time Creatively Using Photos!
There are quite a few fun and useful (and even free!) time management apps (web-based, desktop and mobile). It’s really hard to surprise anyone with a sleek to-do list utility nowadays. However new and exciting tools still pop up once in a while.
One of such promising new tools is “MoreDays” which is still in invitation-based beta. (Getting an invite is easy and quick. Just be sure to check your spam box after you apply. Mine got there and I had been waiting for three days before it occurred to me to check it).
The best feature about the app is that it encourages you to use your photos to create tasks, events and contacts.
This is really brilliant: Taking a photo takes a second nowadays. Most of us have decent photo cameras always on hand and we can quickly take photos of anything. So why not use these photos to better manage your time?
Create an Event
The interface is very appealing: To add a task you need to create a title and submit a photo:
Obviously, you can set up (recurring) reminders, add notes and addresses and add as many other details as you need.
Each of your daily tasks and events is thus turned into a collection of memories of what you have been doing, whom you should have met and what were your daily experiences:
It’s like a digital photo album on steroids: it can alert you of new upcoming events and never let you forget about important meetings by creating sticky photo-enhanced visualizations.
More to Be Excited About
While I loved the photo-support feature most of all, there were other great options I liked in the tool:
- You can store all your events and tasks in a map (and soon they will all be visualized on a single map);
- You can synchronize your to-do lists and photos among various devices (laptop, desktop, mobile, etc);
- There are other cool features promised that we still have to see to believe:
Moredays is getting very positive reviews from the press, so let’s hope the app will stick and get developed. So far the team has done a great job; let’s wait for the upcoming features to be introduced!

I’m pretty sure we can find a blog that was left out in any of these three lists, and some others that did not belong here; but definitely we can find here some of the references in the “blogosphere”.
