Captio Lets You Email Tasks To Yourself With 1 Tap

What’s the easiest way to capture tasks and quick notes on the go? Some might say OmniFocus for iPhone is the way, some are in bed with Simplenote. I say the easiest and fastest way to capture tasks in seconds has always been this: email them to yourself.

I know, it’s archaic. But it works. And if you’re running your email account on Gmail, you have an amazing amount of tools to play with to setup great filters to sort the inbox for you. Not to mention the latest feature Google added to Gmail, the Priority Inbox: if you’re used to emailing tasks to yourself and you tell Google those emails are important, you’ll never miss one.

That’s why I’m in love with Captio. Read more

Looking forward to iPhone 4 numbers.

I couldn’t imagine going back to a Dropbox-free workflow. Read more





Meet My Default Twitter Client on iPhone, Weet

Twitter clients on the iPhone? We had enough, thank you. That’s what I used to say to any developer pitching me and asking whether I thought yet another iteration of Twitter on the iPhone would be a good idea. I was wrong, and here’s why: despite the fact that a genre could be (is) over-crowded and saturated, there’s always the possibility to do better. And as Twitter as a platform is constantly evolving, giving up on ideas just because of competitors is silly.

It’s a fact that we have hundreds of clients to choose from. What’s not so obvious is that you never know who may come up next.

So here we are, talking about Weet. Developed by Raptor Apps and designed by ex-Iconlicious pixel rockstar Marcelo Marfil, Weet was released last week with much buzz over Twitter and other Apple-related blogs. I beta tested the app all along, but I decided to take my time and use it for some more days before writing up something about it.

I’ve been using Weet for a month as the default Twitter client on my iPhone. In fact, I deleted all the other Twitter apps I had. Here’s why. Read more
