Things & Things Touch
Cultured Code, who is already off to a great start with their GTD desktop application Things, has released their highly anticipated iPhone version.
You can use either of these apps on their own, but if you have a Mac and an iPhone, your life is about to get a lot simpler.. or at least more organized.
In either Things app, you can add individual tasks, combine those into multi-step projects, tag items with keywords and set due dates. Tasks uncompleted by their due date are automatically rolled into your ‘today’ list, so they don’t simply get lost. There’s also a hot-key preference, so you can quickly call up the ‘new task’ window from anywhere on your Mac and commit something to your to-do list.
The interface (for for both apps) is minimal, but quick and efficient and helps you get information in/out with a minimum of fuss. And with the latest update, this all now syncs via wi-fi (no ‘push’ though.. yet).
