I didn't mean it's wrong to create things just because you can. I do it all the time, and learned pretty much everything I know this way. Totally agree it's a great thing for educational purposes, I was just questioning if it can be conside

So is Google now going to have a toy-app contest, like they did originally for real Android apps? Jokes aside, I guess I'm a bit skeptical about these pseudo-developement envirnoments. It's a nice concept to demo but does it realy have any

Online dating can work very well (it has worked for me) but be patient. It will take time until you really get it. Practice, practice, practice. Don't give up if you have no luck right away. There are subtle communication aspects that you c

The argumentation is a bit on weak side. There are really no rules, it's just all about confidence, which only comes with practice. You can't learn that by reading articles like this. During an interview, put your candidate outside his comf

This article sounds like a typical enterprise architect bullshit. And he is missing the point. NoSQL is so much more than simple KV store. NoSQL Wants To Be "Elastic Caching" When It Grows Up. What is he smoking?

I tend to agree that this is useless in terms of figuring out the right price point. It may also have a kind of psychological devaluation effect on the service. As a publicity stunt, it makes sense. Although it would make much more sense fo

Been there for quite some time. I can't agree more - a lot of things are wrong in enterprise world. Couple big ones from my experience: - Process-centric culture. Most enterprises have processes for making processes. Process always complica

I'm intending to add a dashboard which would look kind of like a calendar with would show completed task on each day.

This actually gave me an idea. TXT file import/export and potentially automatic synchronization would make a lot of sense. Especially since the primary niche I'm building this for is a technically-savvy crowd, such as developers and develop

Speaking openly, it's a business related issue. The desktop app is free and it always will be. I'm even intending to open source it one day once the code is solid. The business model is to provide added value via web-services. Some of it ma

There are some ideas in this direction as well. It makes sense to organize to-dos and notes in the same fashion. I'm actually using Evernote myself, it's a good app, but still there are are a number of unnecessary features, and couple criti

It's kind of parking area where you can put to-dos which you haven't decided what to do with yet i.e. For example, for quickly dumping ideas etc. Later on you can go over the list and decide whether an item needs to be done today, someday e

Recurring & scheduled to-dos - although it was tempting, I decided to leave it out. First because it's against good productivity principles (the less you commit to specific dates, the better), second because calendar software works good

Yes, absolutely, the web syncing is a must. The idea is to take it a step further with some cool teamwork capabilities. About web UI - there are a lot of web-based to-do list out there, so it's not really a big differentiator. For me, being

This is somewhat similar to "curse of knowledge" principle described in the idea stickiness theory book "Made to stick". Although it's probably one of the symptoms, it's not the most important one. They don't share because of their EGOS.
