If I hadn’t already realized it during the season, the three nights of volleyball playoffs this week were definitely enough to tell me I need to get back on my workout routine. Lots of work plus travel make it easy to come up with excuses – I need to make the time like I was…

In our early alpha of FeedLounge we had implemented auto-complete for tags – similar to what you see in the Gmail “to” field and in Google Suggest. I now have the same functionality need for the tagging coming in the next release of Tasks Pro™ and Tasks. We ended up ripping it out because the…

I started a small WordPress theme development project a few weeks before I went on vacation, unfortunately the revisions didn’t get back to me before I left for vacation and due to prior commitments I do not have time to complete the work at the moment. The HTML mock-ups have been done, along with a…

Version numbers are cheap. 🙂 I just pushed out a Tasks Pro™ 1.7 alpha 3 that fixes a few bugs. There is a new alpha 3 forum thread too. This post is part of the project: Tasks Pro™. View the project timeline for more context on this post.

I’ve released a second preview (alpha) release of Tasks Pro™ 1.7. Let me stress that this is an early development preview release. It almost certainly has some bugs, and could behave in unexpected ways. Make a backup before you upgrade. There is also no documentation yet for the tagging features that have been added. You’ve…

Tasks Pro™ 1.7 alpha 1 is now available. I’ve had tagging completely implemented in Tasks Pro™ (in various incarnations) for about a month now, and I think it works pretty well. Let me stress that this is an early development preview release. It almost certainly has some bugs, and could cause all sorts of problems…

The consulting work I’m doing is reminding me (in larger software companies) how much “work” time is necessarily spent communicating and discussing – leaving little time for “actual work”. A co-worker of mine at a BigCo in a former life had this on a poster in her cube1: Meetings, the practical alternative to work. There…

I received this question about my BlackBerry Bounty today: Alex, I noticed that Verizon was omitted in the rules portion of the tethering to a Mac bounty. Is there a reason for this? I just switched to a BB 7130E from a Treo 650, and would love to use it as a modem for my…

There have been a number of interesting posts in the last few weeks from folks seriously thinking about what they want from an operating system. John Gruber’s latest post got me thinking about the applications bundled with Mac OS X. A quick survey of the apps I use and there are only 3 that are…

I had lunch with Danny today and took the opportunity to ask for some feedback/help with the tagging interface I’ve implemented for the next release of Tasks Pro™. I’d already re-done the tagging interface 3 times, and I’m still not satisfied with it. Trying to walk the line between consistency and subtlety with a feature…
