Like most people on the planet earth, I manage a ToDos list for my daily errands, work schedule, reading and even one for family; and so far I never liked any of the ToDos applications available in the market, I maintain my lists on a pocket MoleSkine notebook.

What I need to see in a ToDo application:

Web interface, something like the one Google Tasks maintaining, it’s very simple and accessible one.

Smart Phone integration: By smart phone I’m referring to Android, iPhone mainly but I would also love to see integration with BlackBerry, Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung and all other smart phones.

Reminder: This one of the most important feature about a todo. Certain ToDos has milestones and deadlines; Technically speaking, your life is a project.

Desktop Sticky notes integration: Synchronised on the fly. This is a great addition for a quick look on what you have to do next and what’s remaining.

I can’t say I’m not happy with Google Tasks, Calendar and its reliable SMS reminder but I’m just in need for more integration between the applications.

At some point I thought of using a project management application to run my life but it was too much for my busy and complicated life, I think I just need a simple form of project management application in a ToDos application presentation.

What’s your favourite ToDos application?

One of the things that I hate most about International shipments is speed, but now with Boxoh.com it’s interesting as I get to watch the package moving on Google Maps until it gets to my door (Not precisely as it’s going to a friend who’s flying to Jordan one day after the delivery) .

One got to love the beauty of mashed up service!

Year ago, I bought my iPhone 3G 16GB for 199 JOD ($281) with one year commitment which I don’t have a problem with since I never changed my mobile provider ever since I got a mobile number.
Week ago, I sold my iPhone for 290 JOD ($409) that means I made 91 JOD ($128) in a year of using iPhone, add to that the 75 JOD (105) loyalty points that I made too! In short, my iPhone costed me 33 JOD ($44).

Once I sold it, I added 70 JOD ($100) and purchased Google Nexus One phone. Now, Will Google Nexus One compete with that?

So the verdict is out! You can’t get the most of iPhone OS 4.0 on your iPhone 3G but 3Gs and since I don’t have iPhone 3Gs nor can afford to buy it now or even interested in it anymore, I’m considering installing Android on my iPhone 3G.

None of the blogs I checked confirmed whether it can be usable, it seems to be experimental until now. So if anyone have experience in this, please let me know!
