Don’t Go Entirely Paperless
by
Jamie talks about one of the issues with buying into any system, going overboard. When I was going paperless with Evernote, my experiment was to see if I could go completely paperless, so everything went into Evernote.

by
We’re already a good bit into 2021, so it’s time to share my hybrid productivity system.

Automating Things 3 with Taskpaper Templates
by
While Things3 has a solid URL scheme I’ve talked about a few times, it’s a huge pain in the ass to use when you need to adjust templates or deal with automation on iPadOS and iOS. The need to detect which device you’re on sucks and Cultured Code needs to come up with some fix…

[Scribble](https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/ipad/ipad355ab2a7/ipados) is a new iOS 14 feature that brings the apple pencil new powers for these that love handwriting. Today I’ll only be looking at how [Things 3 supports Scribble](https://culturedcode.com/things/blog/). I don’t think that Scribble will greatly increase my Apple Pencil use, but it’s nice to have for any user that is using their Apple…
Automating My Content Calendar in Things 3
by
As I’ve looked around at different task managers and settled on Things 3 as my first option to test out, I realized I was giving up my [TickTick Content Calendar](https://curtismchale.ca/2020/08/03/build-a-content-calendar-with-ticktick).
