Here’s a list of great little applications that the Mac-poweredHardware freelancer should consider. Internet 1.

AppStorm News 9. WriteroomAsk The Editor Competitions is a simple, yetInterviews very powerful application and full screen writing is the name of the game. Not more, but less. If the complexityLive Coverage of modern word processors isn’t inspiring, work it all out with Writeroom. Mactastik 10. AvenirOpinion Screencasts is a writing applicationSponsors specialized for fiction. Characters, locations, scenes. If you’re a fiction writer, Avenir will giveWeekly you Polleven more flexibility in writing your next bestseller. About 11. Circus Ponies Notebook Search for Search... Search is just that – a notebook. If you really love that old Moleskine, but want to go digital, this application lets you do just that. The interface resembles an actual notebook, letting you do outlines, add tasks, etc. 12. Yojimbo is many things to many people. It can be a text archive, a code archive, a bookmark list, a web archive, just about anything you desire. This flexibility in both format (text, images, PDF, rich text,…) and control lets you customize Yojimbo to your own workflow. 13. Montage is yet another specialized writing tool. Well, it actually isn’t. It is specialized, but quite uniquely for screenwriting. That’s right, say hello to TV, movies and theatre. Integration with Address Book even lets you submit, track and send your queries and scripts. 14. OmniFocus is a GTD application by the legendary OmniGroup. the makers of OmniOutliner and OmniGraffle. The application grew out of a collaboration with Ethan Schoonover who made a GTD workflow plugin for OmniOutliner. The plugin was so successful it deserved to be an actual application. Today, Ethan works for Omni, and with the help of GTD guru Merlin Mann it’s safe to say OmniFocus will be a very good application. 15. Things is a task management application that’s not yet released, but looks amazing. If everything goes well, this could be the GTD application with the best interface. Some of the features CulturedCode is planning are quite unique, but time will tell if our waiting is worth it. Now go and subscribe to their newsletter! 16. Linotype Explorer is a great font management application for the Mac. You can use it to both install, manage and “test” fonts. Best of all – it’s free. 17. Xylescope is great for fine tuning the CSS for your sites. The web, html and css views let you find that little bug that’s been troubling you. Have all the source code organized and shown in a way that makes you want to code, and code, and code… 18. Quicksnap is a great alternative to Mac OS X’s own screen capture system. You can time them, customize them, change the format and much more. 19. Knox lets you encrypt and backup your files. Creating vaults using advanced encryption standards is now even more secure. Because it’s based on the same technology Apple’s FileVault uses, all your data can be opened without Know if needed. 20. Cocktail is a maintenance utility that keeps your Mac running smoothly. Lots of features, all accessible via a simple UI, let you check and repair your disks, run maintenance scripts, clear system caches and a hundred other things. 21. CSSEdit is the best looking CSS editor for the Mac out there. You can edit it, preview it, extract. It chops, slices, even dices. It can even play along with AJAX. 22. Coda is an all in one application that makes designers want to take notes and is a lot of web developer’s only tool. A text and css editor, a built in file browser (let’s not forget, these guys built Transmit) and an Apple Design Award to its honor. It also comes packed with a an actual web reference book reformatted and built into the actual application. 23. TextMate is probably the most popular text editor for the Mac. Do you need to code? You probably already have TextMate. Why am I even mentioning it? 24. Transmit is a FTP application with a very simple interface. Don’t underestimate it though. Panic put a lot of power into this application, adding features like docksend, iWeb and WebDAV integration and a ton of automator actions you can use. 25. Cyberduck may not be as powerful as Panic’s Transmit, but still supports FTP, SFTP as well as Bonjour. Its advantage is that it’s open source. Get the duck quacking! 26. Forklift is a very nice file manager and FTP client. Need better integration? Well, Forklift has an application deleter as well as Amazon S3 support. 27. RooSwitch is a great application whose features make it quite unique. The core feature is application data profiles. You can then switch through these profiles, basically letting every application support multiple users. Developers can create custom user profiles for testing their applications while other users can have “home” and “work” profiles. 28. Billings lets you track and then invoice your clients. Simple. Choose a template or create your own. No need for professional graphics software. That said, print designers don’t really need this application. 29. OnTheJob performs just one task and that’s tracking your time. One task, but it does a great job of it. You can work and then take a break letting OnTheJob’s idle time checker stop the timer. Checking its status is as easy as looking at the dock badge and after finishing it can even create a simple invoice if needed. 30. iBiz is a very powerful invoicing and time-billing application. Unlike the past two, it has a ton of features, letting you have all the information you need. Add to that advanced networking as well as iCal and Address Book integration and iBiz is something a freelancer who wants to track his income really needs. 31. Serverskine is a godsend for web developers and designers. If you know the feeling of trying to look for a clients hosting account password, you’ll love this application. Track server, domain hosting information – all for free! 32. Devonthink is a database application. You can store any kind of document in it. From text and images to MP3s, keep track of all your data in what every way you see fit. Organize, reorganize. Are other organization applications chaotic? Make your own. 33. Skype is the most popular VoIP client out there. Although recently they did have a problem or two, Skype remains a key communication tool for a lot of companies. Low prices make it a great option for freelancers who work with international clients. 34. Ecto is a desktop blogging application that works with most weblog systems. From Blogger to WordPress and beyond. Its interface makes it a good tool for freelancers who like to blog between productive sessions of procrastination. 35. Spanning Sync will be a great companion if you use Google Calendar.

  • Thesis Title
    Masters' Degree in Informatics Engineering Dissertation System of Automatic Recommendation and Prioritization of Tasks Jos´ePedro Santana Saraiva [email protected] Advisor : Alexandre Pinto June 2014 UNIVERSIDADE DE COIMBRA Abstract Faculdade de Ci^enciase Tecnologia Departamento de Engenharia Inform´atica Master's Degree Thesis System of Automatic Recommendation and Prioritization of Tasks by Jos´ePedro Santana Saraiva Most people have many different tasks, goals, projects, interests and responsibilities in life, and in the fast paced world we live in today, all of these grow in number and diversity all the time. This rising in complexity and quantity of matters to handle makes it progressively harder to make intuitive choices about which task to execute next. We developed a prototype application for helping the user in managing and prioritizing his tasks, guaranteeing an alignment with his goals and deadlines. Our application follows a variation over the Getting Things Done (GTD) methodology but also includes benefits from other complementary approaches, such as goal cascading and dynamic prioritization. Keywords: GTD, Prioritization of Tasks, Recommendation of Tasks, Hierarchization of Objectives, Personal Productivity |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||- Acknowledgements Firstly, I would like to acknowledge my immense gratitude to my advisor Prof. Alexandre Pinto for all the guidance and knowledge provided, for the patience and availability shown since the start of this thesis and for his motivational words provided in hard times. I also would like to acknowledge the Cognitive and Media Systems Group for providing me shelter and allowing me to use their resources. Last but not least, I am truly grateful for the support that my beloved family has given throughout my studies, especially my parents and grandparents for their relentless support, belief and comprehension, and my gratitude to all my friends who played an essential role during this period of my life.
