![]() ![]() Especially repeating events, like birthdays or filing estimated taxes. It's all mostly peachy, except that once in a while, I wind up with multiple copies of the same event. Right now I mainly use iCal which syncs nicely between my computers and my phone, but I get a lot of invitation to meetings in Gmail that wind up in Google Calendar, so I have that syncing into iCal, too. Interesting the calendaring suggestions, and it'll take me a while to sift through. I already do use Dropbox, TripIt, and sometimes Evernote, so maybe I'm not as far behind as I thought. Amazing.Īlso looking forward to trying Strict Pomodoro, the reader suggestions, and you've all made me realize I need to update my backup strategy. Response by poster: Wow, a lot of these look really amazing! I am particularly impressed with f.lux, which has already made a noticeable difference in how quickly I fall asleep at night. Posted by adamrice at 5:10 PM on January 9, 2013 I've found that iCloud, despite it's problems, is a benefit. I've been using Grocery Gadget, but kinda want to switch to AnyList. My wife and I both use iPhones, and having a grocery-list app is surprisingly handy. It actually works with some other mouse-like input devices as well. Three-finger swipe left/right in my browser is "next/prev tab." Really cool. Three-finger click in my browser is "open in new tab in background". I transitioned to using Apple's standalone trackpad when I upgraded to 10.8, and I use a little app called BetterTouchTool, which lets me define gestural shortcuts. It could be improved a little, but I'm a fan. On that note, I use an app-store app called Blotter, which displays my week's schedule on the desktop. When you say you use a "mashup" of Apple's calendar and gCal, you know you can get your gCal inside Apple's Calendar, right?

For functional purposes: I'm a freelancer and writer. What indispensable pieces of software or hardware have you purchased or downloaded lo these past five years? What's the best thing I should be using that I'm not because I just didn't know about it?įor compatibility purposes: I am a Mac Mountain Lion and iPhone 4S user with a Nexus 7 tablet. This led me to wonder what else I've completely missed the boat on in the last few years, since I'm in a good quiet spell for upgrading and trying new things. Apparently it's been the new hotness so long that it doesn't even qualify as the new hotness anymore! But since 43folders stopped being a blog about the shiny, my knowledge of what tools are the most awesomest has basically stopped dead. It turns out yes! And its name is Alfred. Recently, I took to wondering if some new hotness has replaced Quicksilver, which has grown slow and very, very crashy. ![]()
