RTM Notifier, an Adobe AIR app to help you keep track of To Do lists

RTM Notifier 20081007 220706 RTM Notifier, an Adobe AIR app to help you keep track of To Do listsRTM Notifier is a simple, clean Adobe AIR app that runs in the background and keeps up to date with your Remember The Milk account and the tasks organized therein, notifying you when they come due.

The developer, while not a Mac user, is asking for comments from the Mac community on how well the app runs. I’ve found the application to be fairly straightforward and functional, but it has a few design and usability quirks that might keep me from chosing it over loading Remember The Milk in my web browser.

I have found Todo RTM Notifier, an Adobe AIR app to help you keep track of To Do lists to be a really good Remember The Milk app for iPhone and iPod touch users. Well worth the USD$9.99 in my opinion.

codepoetry updates Notae to v2.2 with template notes

notae 20071014 232641 codepoetry updates Notae to v2.2 with template notes
codepoetry has announced the release of Notae 2.2. The update brings such features as template notes (notes you can insert into other notes), partial matching for tag searches, optional automatic saving of documents when they are closed, adding or removing tags via contextual menus as well as many smaller usability enhancements.

Notae is a notes keeping application that incorporates the power of Mac OS X’s text system. While other tools merely include the standard Apple Text menu, Notae has assigned traditional keyboard shortcuts to kerning, leading, and other text commands so that you never have to leave the keyboard to get the look you want or navigate through your notes. In addition to creating text notes, Notae allows users to keep PDF notes or even download web pages as Web Notes for future reference. Every note type can be tagged and organized, enabling the user to easily locate the note in the future via the Tag Browser feature.

Notae 2.2 requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later. After the 14-day demonstration period, the program can be registered for USD$29.
