    (I’m not using teuxdeux anymore. And after a short liaison with Todoist, I’m back with OmniFocus.)

    Reading the old scripture on the forecast perspective makes it clear to me, that this was intended to be used as a way to tell how due dates and events on a calendar interact.

    It’s true you can also show deferred tasks and use a forecast tag to surface tasks without a due date in this perspective, but that is just secondary functionality. And it shows.

    Short follow-up:

    • Sometime has not worked out for me. I never got the hang of it. I think it’s a good app, it just didn’t click with me.
    • TeuxDeux is used very lightly. I would want to use it more, but I believe doing is more important than organizing or even tracking the doing.

    Forward.

    Got an unexpected Mail from TeuxDeux with a special offer. Very tempting to get TeuxDeux for a whole year for only 18$…

    Forward.

  • Two promising new apps:

    Sometime is an app for recurring tasks and reminders that seems to be what I have (ab)used Due for. I just started using it, but the idea is great.

    TeuxDeux is a pretty, minimalistic todo list manager. This year I cut down hard on what I’d call metawork, that is work to organize other work and abandoned my heavier task-management systems I had set up in Things or OmniFocus. I’m still using their free trial, but I love their clean design and can see myself using this going forward. I love their approach of doing business and I think that their Instagram is actually funny.

    Forward.
