FeedLounge Feed Reader
January 19, 2006
For those of you who are RSS/XML/etc feed readers, there is a new web-based feeder reader available that I have found to be incredible. I havent tried all the feed readers out there, nor am I monster feed reader, but FeedLounge is the best one I have used.
The application is actually in beta testing, but I have found it to be very stable. The folks over at FeedLounge are currently charging $5 a month for the service, but hope to make it available for free soon when the server pays for itself. They have a demo that you can try out before you sign up.
If you are a feed reader, give this one a shot…
Getting Organized
January 11, 2006
I have been looking for a good “to do” or task scheduling software for some time now. I never quite found one that lived up to my needs/desires. Most tended to be either to lightweight or so feature heavy that they were cumbersome to use or just too expensive for my blood.
Well, I stumbled across one the other day that is the closest I have seen to what I have been looking for. The application is called Tasks. To quote from their website:
“Tasks is a powerful web-based task manager to help you manage your personal and professional projects effectively. You have numerous tasks, projects with sub-tasks, related notes and files, billable tasks, and ideas that you want to publish to your blog. You need to access on various computers, PDA€™s, or web-enabled phones from anywhere. Tasks is your solution.”
I love being able to access it from the web and being able to send email to the application to create tasks for me. Too often I think of something I need to do and forget about it before I document it. Now, just pop off an email and its entered. Of course, being web-based means you need a server to host it on. If you dont have a server, they have an option to host it for you.
The forums are responsive and I have made several additional feature requests. They have a demo version that you can try before you buy. The application is only $30.
Stop by King Design and give it a try…
