Here's what I'd like to see - A Todo app, calendar and goal tracker all rolled in one, with a clean UI and multi-platform sync. That's all the productivity I need!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It takes me around 4 seconds to type in a task with MyLifeOrgainzed. (Can be 2-3 seconds for short tasks.) No need to open the app, it's always open, just press a shortcut key to bring up a dialog for adding a task.

Wow... that's one really ugly UI. http://www.mylifeorganized.net/i/sshots/myLife-ssh012.gif

If you say "retro 90s UI" it sounds better.

Out of all the todo apps I've tried. Every time I go back to writing shit on a white board. I've timed myself. IT takes me about 6 seconds to write something on a whiteboard. And about 10 to take a picture of it with my phone. Compare that to the 20+ it takes for me to pull out my phone, open an app, get into the list I want, and then type it out on a shitty little keyboard. Until you make a note taking app that take…

Agree 100%. I use Evernote for longer notes, but a Moleskine for quickies.

+1 for delicious cheese.

Let me guess, you're American. Not that cheddar can't be a good cheese, but on the other side of the pond, cheddar is really the most basic cheese.

We here on this side are unfortunately accustomed to cheese far more basic than cheddar (some of which are arguably even cheese at all)...

But superlative or not, I do greatly enjoy a quality sharp cheddar.

Anyone else experiencing a lot of bugs with Cheddar? I mark an item done on my iPhone, web UI doesn't sync. Now I create a new list, it doesn't show.

Still early stage?

Seriously, Sam. Reword the brief to not say "magical". It's annoying at best and insulting at worst. If it were ticking off "get milk" when you put a new carton of milk in a fridge, that could've passed for magical. Doing an auto background sync is not, you are late by few years.

It might actually be magical, if you [mis-]read this:

It's just text. Type in the box. Press return. Done.

I'd love to complete all my tasks by typing in a box and pressing return.

The comments on this thread are such an embarrassment. Someone's worked hard on something for months, and people go and piss all over it. If you don't think this is a useful or good app, you don't even have to look at it. Just pass. At least when someone launches a product, if you don't have anything encouraging or constructive to say, it's best not to say anything. It seems HN is suffering more and more from the "Wh…

Why is honest criticism not allowed? Don't you want to know why people are averse to your service so you can perfect it, no less directly from the people who would pay for it?

There's a difference between honest criticism and bashing someones hard work. 75% of the comments on this post are not honest criticism.

With no-bullshit audiences that tell it like it is, you sometimes need to read between the lines. I'm not condoning the behavior, but it is not foreign to HN and something to consider before posting here.

Sweet, it's completely useless! I can't dump a task from command line or vim. Can't script it to pull things to the calendar automatically. Can't send an email to put a task directly into it. Can't dump tasks to a text todo list to put at the top of the code or document im writing to remember what I need as I write. Will not use. And, even if those features show up, won't consider due to lack basic thought in initial…

Do you know of something that does this... I'd like to try it? Is this something org-mode can do (probably not since the vim statement, but just wondering)?
