By unprofessional looking I mean that when I'm using it at work people notice and ask what it is as if it is some play thing. I don't have this problem with Vitalist. If I could just take some key features from Hiveminder and have them work with Vitalist I'd be set :) I like a lot about Hiveminder but their user interface coloers are ugly and unprofessional looking.

I've been using it for a week or so. Input is must faster and easier than Vitalist. You just need a good tagging system. How about Hiveminder? I’ve been using it for a week or so.

Qipit is a program that converts your digital pix into .pdf files. So, you can take a picture of your moleskine or your notecards and e-mail them to yourselves as a backup. Go to Qipit.com. No, I don't have any relationships with them, other than I met the creator at a blogging meeting. Regards, Glenn Here’s an app for your analog system.

I like the natural language, but I keep being afraid I'll use a wrong "magic word" and an important to-do item will be omitted. My T-Mobile Dash recently died (again) so I'm just carrying a "regular" cell phone again as I used to do and using GCal for calendaring instead of Outlook. I already have GCal sync'd quite nicely to my MacBook using SpanningSync, but I'm still not 100% comfortable where that leaves me when I'm not at a computer... I can query today or tomorrow using my phone and GCal SMS's me a list of appointments, but what I'd REALLY like is random access to a day of my choosing: "Hey, Scott - you doin' anything Thursday night?" "Hold on - I'll check..." Still - I don't think there's a way to SMS to Stikkit which would be VERY cool indeed. I signed up and have been playing with Stikkit for a few weeks.

I love being able to jot down notes in my Moleskine or on index cards and process them later. But I hate writing and rewriting lists, so for now I'm using Vitalist. It's not perfect, but at least everything's in one place. I especially like having the little form to fill out for each action, which makes me think about projects, contexts, and due dates. I played around with Stikkit and found it a little too unwieldy for my tastes. I need a little more structure. For me, analog is really good for capture.
