Use webpages and Gmail messages as tasks with Todoist Anywhere

Todoist has been around for a while. In fact, Download Squad first wrote about this web-based to-do app back in 2007. It's come a long way since then, though, and the latest feature addition, Todoist Anywhere, lets you turn webpages and Gmail messages into to-do items. With one click, you can view your Todoist tasks and take advantage of Gmail integration.

Access Todoist at any time using a convenient bookmarklet - you can even sign up for a new account from there - and then you're good to go. Todoist anywhere supports multiple lists and recurring dates, and there's even a convenient mini-calendar included. In terms of Gmail-specific features, Todoist lets you click on a message in your inbox and add it as a task that links back to the original email.

Make Trillian portable with Trillian Anywhere

Trillian AnywhereWhile many have been satisfied with Portable Gaim for their take-it-with-you IM needs, some people are stuck on Trillian (and not without reason). What are those people to do if they want to be able to take a complete Trillian install with them on a USB drive? Trillian Anywhere poses a solution. It's not a portable version of Trillian you download, but rather an "online wizard" that will guide you through the steps of creating and modifying a Trillian install that will play nice on portable storage. There are separate wizards for each version of Trillian, but the process basically goes like this: Install Trillian in a temporary directory, install your skin, plugins, and copy over your profile, then edit its INI files so that Trillian behaves the way you want it. This seems like a good opportunity for a developer to automate the process, but there's only six steps involved and it's straightforward enough even for novices.

The World's Hardest Game 2.0 - Time Waster

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do. Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
