Flow: Great Task Management and To-Do List Tool, Shame About the Price

Steven Finch — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 11:36:03 +0000

MetaLab has just released their latest product, Flow. Flow is a simple tool for managing and delegating tasks. Flow is trying to solve the common problem of task management and to-do lists.

Flow provides users with the ability to create a task, you enter a name, a due date, any contacts you’d like to delegate the task to, and relevant tags. Tasks can be grouped into projects, and team members can append attachments and comments to each task.

I have been looking for a task and to-do list manager like this for a very long time, and my initial thoughts were that Flow could take over this market. However, they wont, because of the price = Flow offers a 14 day free trial, and then runs $10 a month or $99 a year. I really wish Google would come up with a service like this, because they would be the only ones to offer it out to the masses for free.

Diacarta Offers Unique Scheduling Mobile App

Luis Sandoval — Sun, 08 Aug 2010 22:20:24 +0000

There are plenty of options in Apple’s App Store if you are looking for a calendar/task mobile app. Take your pick, chances you’ll find the one that best suits the way you like to task and prioritize your day. Some free, some you pay for, but ultimately there is no end in sight to the number of apps you can choose from to organize your day.

I’m always looking for unique ways to manage my systems. Task apps, to-do lists, I’ve seen them all before and few offer anything unique enough to make me change the way I’m doing things right now. The status quo was changed when I came across Diacarta. Not expecting fresh approach to scheduling and seeing my list of appointments, I was quickly caught up in exploring the display, how information is shared, and the interface. It’s a beautiful app no doubt and it does offer some unique approaches to the way we organize ourselves.

Rather than seeing your day in a line item list of text, you get to create a picture of your day. The premise of the entire app is associating image icons with things that need to get done during the day. This association creates your day and plans out by the hour what your agenda will look like visually. You still type in all the necessary details for your event or task, but it only shows up if you allow your finger to linger on the icon, it disappears when you move your finger.

Diacarta is an interesting way to visualize your day to day, but is it enough to integrate into your systems? Take a look at the video below and let us know.

Kick Productivity Into High Gear with ActionMethod

Luis Sandoval — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 05:09:56 +0000

I’ve been a big fan of Behance products offline, for my meetings, site sketches, and to-do list from time to time. Now they are tackling productivity online with their new online app and comparable mobile app to always stay on top of the things that you need to do daily.

Action Method was introduced this year as the premiere application to manage your projects, tasks, planning, and meetings. The application allows you to create projects, create tasks, assign tasks, and manage a calendar. If tasks are falling behind you can nudge the people to whom you assigned them to in order to remind them of deadlines. Color coding is a big winner for this app as it’s easy to find what you’re looking for with alternating colors.

Have an iPhone or iTouch? No problem, your web application syncs with your mobile app so your to-do list is never far away. Incredibly useful and sure to improve with future updates, the app is free to download, and free for up to 50 tasks, premium service for unlimited tasks comes in at $12/month or $99/year.
