The New To-Do List: why I’m back to pen and paper
I've always loved tinkering with my digital setup. Since I got my first computer, I've spend countless hours playing with software, looking for little hacks, and always in search of better organizational systems and file management. Every so often, I'll swap my preferred text editor for another to see how I like it or try a new app to see how it fits into my workflow. Lately, this tinkering has focused on to-do list applications and project management software.
Since transitioning to full-time self-employment, I've had to take stock of my own workflows and reconsider how I manage tasks and track time. For the better part of the decade, I'd been a loyal Things user. I first downloaded it in college and have used it through every job I've had and grad school, as well as keeping track of personal and household tasks like taking out the trash, watering plants, and grocery lists. Last year, I switched to Wunderlist in an attempt to better manage multi-part projects and keep track of freelance projects. Over the last few weeks, however, I've started using another system that, albeit strangely, has become one of the best task managers I've used: pen and paper.
Getting started with coding as a novice. A free and handy resource kudos via culture code. Check in, Check out, Enjoy.
Productivity app Things adds push sync feature to keep task lists auto updated across devices
Managing alerts on Cultured Code’s Things task management app across multiple devices is about to become a whole lot more effective. Things already uses its own robust syncing solution called Things Cloud since iCloud syncing has been rocky at times in the past, and today Cultured Code is unveiling a major upgrade to Things Cloud.

Rapid Reminder Creation from Mobile Safari Using Drafts App and x-callback-url
Below is a javascript bookmarklet than you can save in Safari. The bookmarklet will automatically open the [Drafts](http://agiletortoise.com/drafts) app and create a new Apple Reminder that contains the name and url of the originating page in Safari. This bookmarklet uses [x-callback-url](http://x-callback-url.com) (supported by Drafts) to then automatically return you to Safari after the Reminder is created. This can be useful to users of [Things](https://culturedcode.com) (or [OmniFocus](http://www.omnigroup.com/products/omnifocus-iphone/)) because it is a very quick and seamless way to create a new task in Things from a web page on iOS. It is actually creating an Apple Reminder that can be imported into the Things inbox the next time you launch Things. For example, say you were at the google home page in mobile Safari. Tapping on the bookmarklet would automatically take you to Drafts where a Reminder would be automatically created called "Google www.google.com." You would then automatically be returned to the google home page in Safari. There are a few prerequisites for this to work for creating a new reminder in Things (my preferred GTD application suite): 1. You need to have Reminders integration enabled in Things. 2. In the Things settings, you need to make sure that the Reminders list to import is the same list that is specified as the default list in the Reminders section of the iOS Settings app. 3. You need to have the Drafts app installed on your device. 4. You need to have the "Reminder" action enabled in Drafts (which will save the reminder to the default list specified in the iOS Settings app). 5. You need to have the "Allow URLs to trigger actions?" option in Drafts' settings set to On.
   So here is the bookmarklet: Javascript:window.location='drafts://x-callback-url/create?text='+encodeURIComponent(document.title)+'%20'+escape(document.URL)+'&action=Reminder'+'&x-source=Safari&x-success='+escape(document.URL) To install, just bookmark any page in Safari. Save it. Then edit that bookmark to replace its address with the bookmarlet address above. As cool as this is, there is one drawback. This bookmarklet creates a task whose title contains both the name and url of the web page in the task title, and the url is not clickable because Things does not allow hyperlinks in task names. It would be great if there was a way to put the address in the task notes where it would be clickable, but this is not possible because Drafts does not have a way to write to the Reminder's notes section. This could alternatively be solved if the Things app supported x-callback-url, but at the timing of this writing, it does not. If you would like to create a task from a web page that has the web page title as the task name and the address in the notes, then you can used the following bookmarklet which I found on the Things forums a while back. Javascript:window.location='things:add?title='+escape(document.title)+'¬es=Visited%20on%20'+new%20Date().toDateString()+':%20'+escape(document.URL) The limitation of this bookmarklet is that it does not automatically return you to Safari. All in all, I'm not sure how useful the above callback bookmarklet is because the url in the task name is not clickable. But it is a fast way to create a task from mobile Safari, and it was personally kind of fun to play around with the x-callback-url specification. Ideally, Cultured Code will one day officially support x-callback-url in their iOS apps. **Update**: Of course, you don't have to use this with Things. It can be used just to create iOS Reminders. Alternatively, this can be used with Omnifocus, which also supports Reminders integration for task creation.

As the new year gets into full swing, the Mac App Store is holding a Get Stuff Done sale. It starts today, and you can get Things Mac for a whopping 50% off the normal price.
A home for my todo's
I used Things for a long time to keep track of my todo lists. Over all I think it’s one of the most well designed Mac apps out there. This goes for the iOS versions to. But there was one thing missing. Cloud syncing.
So somtimes last year, I switched to Wunderlist. It’s big strength is the seamless cloud sync. Apart from that the app isn’t as powerful as Things, and the GUI feels more fancy than beatutiful.
And here lies the case for me. Things is a beautiful app. I saw Frank Chimeros talk from Build on Vimeo this weekend, and some of his reflections here around design, pretty much sums up my feelings about Things.
So as you might guess, I switched back to Things and by using Dropbox and wifi sync between devices, I now can focus on getting tasks done and stop looking for the perfect todo app.
UPDATE: I finally got access to the Things Beta, so now my to-do’s are in the cloud :–)
Your move, Cultured Code
So we now finally have Chinese Democracy, Duke Nukem Forever, and TextMate 2.
You know what's missing from this list? Things Cloud Sync.
