    Ronin Review – Invoicing and Time Tracking for Samurai’s

    by

    There are so many billing systems out there and it’s hard to know which one is right for you. I’ve been using Ronin for about a year now and here is my review. It should be noted that I started this review before I found out Ronin was acquired by Godaddy. Had Ronin been a

    Logitech G930 Headphones Review

    by

    Between Skype calls, Google hangouts, podcasts and general work I use headphones a lot at my desk. There is just something about using headphones that makes me more productive.

    Meet Radium – I like chocolate in my ears

    by

    Back when I dropped my ‘regular’ credit card I found a bunch of things that I just didn’t want to pay monthly for anymore. Rdio was one of those services. I loved getting new music when I wanted but something about paying for it monthly just didn’t sit right for me. Since then I’ve been

  • Does Trello work to Run Your Business?

    Does Trello work to Run Your Business?

    by

    My latest stop in software to try and run my business has been Trello. Unlike Daylite (read my Daylite review), Trello is not a specifically tailored CRM and Project management application. I say that Trello is not ‘specifically tailored’ because Trello takes a such an open approach to dealing with managing business tasks. You can’t

  • Chrome Messenger Bags – Hardwearing and Waterproof

    by

    One of the best cycling related purchases I’ve ever made was a proper messenger bag for carrying my stuff around, it took me many tries to find one though. I’ve had a Timbuk2 bag. Great for walking around and looking stylish, but mostly useless for actually riding around, and it won’t keep your stuff dry.

  • Trello Initial Thoughts

    by

    After working with Daylite (my review of Daylite) and writing about OmniFocus not quite cutting it for business management, I’ve decided that Trello is my next stop. After a few days of using it here are some initial thoughts. Wide Open is a blocker One of the best features of Trello is also a blocker

  • iAWriter or Byword?

    by

    If you’re looking for a review of iAWriter and Byword, this is not the post you’re looking for. Really, I like both applications in different contexts. Both applications do iCloud, and do it just fine. I’ve never lost a document. They both have enhanced keyboards on iOS, and when I’m using either I miss some

    Complete Review of Daylite 4

    by

    Update: I’ve also done a review of Trello as a tool to run your business. For a while now I’ve been looking for the perfect solution to run my web design/development business. I gave Harvest an earnest shot but after that I haven’t found anything that convinced me to stick around for more than a

  • I Love Scrivener…but

    by

    Update: Check the comments for an update on Scrivener for the iPad. Woohooo! One of the tools I love for longer writing is Scrivener (AppStore). There is simply no other application that allows the freedom in organizing ideas in to chapters. I have found no other application that allows the easy organizing of research. Scrivener
