I’m SUPER jazzed and excited to see Bluetoo venture’s Todoist application for the iPhone. As many of you know I’ve been researching GTD applications and trying to come up with as system that works for my needs.
I’m currently using Toodledo which is a very nice application.. it’s well documented, has tons of support, and the development team is great. The only problem is that I’m just not a fan of the web UI. It’s difficult to use.. the sub-task support is complicated and feels buggy. I’m not saying it is buggy.. it just feels funky when i use it. Oh, and the UI just doesn’t make me scream with joy. There are a lot of great things about Toodledo.. it really is a fantastic product. However, for day to day use I keep coming back to..
Todoist. It is a much simpler application but I LOVE the UI. Unfortunately, it hasn’t had an iPhone application to match, therefore making it unusable for me in production.
Well, Bluetoo Ventures is about to release “Doings”.. their todoist iPhone application. I haven’t seen it yet, but I’m VERY excited.. can’t wait to give it a shot!
This is very cool.. Something that’s been kinda buggin me about my iphone camera is that it just doesn’t always take the best photos. I mean, they’re great photos.. and it’s a “nice” camera.. but sometimes you just need a better lense, you know?
Well, check this out..
Lenses for your iphone! Cool!

This is the coolest interface for drawing curves. I love it when people start thinking outside the box about interfaces and how we work with our computers. I can’t wait to see what the future holds.. especially when you start looking at this type of thing, combined with a multi-touch interface..
Another example is Jeff Han’s multi-touch demo at TED in 2006. We have this type of thing available now with microsoft surface and with the iPhone.. sooo cool.
This is so helpful.. it’s something that’s been frustrating me quite a bit. I mean, I’m a HUGE apple fan.. I love ‘em. Great computers.. great interface.. great design.. but they just piss me off when it comes to DRM.
For example.. I own lots of music. And I want to listen to it at home, or at work. Sometimes I’m at work and I buy music on my mac there. But I can’t connect my work mac to my iphone to sync because you can only sync your iphone to ONE MACHINE. AGH! hell, at home I have 3 macs that I could possibly want music or movies from, but it still only lets me sync with one machine.
I also own dvds from all over the world.. but I can only switch regions 4 times on my mac. Why? WHY?? It’s my mac.. they’re my dvds.. let me switch regions to play them!
GAH!
Anyway, this post helps with some of the frustrations…
