Omnifocus for iPhone
I have recently started using Omnifocus on my iPod Touch in order better manage my tasks. What follows is a short review of the application – what it does well, where it could be improved and my general impressions of it.
Firstly, from the Omnifocus site itself to give you an idea of what the application does, and what it is designed for.
“OmniFocus for the iPhone brings task management to your fingertips. Keep track of actions by project, place, person, or date. Bring up a shopping list, agenda items to discuss at work, tasks for home, and any other lists you need.
Using your location, OmniFocus can create a custom list of actions to complete nearby. Buying groceries? OmniFocus can show you the closest grocery store and create an instant shopping list.
Capture tasks anywhere, anytime with OmniFocus: you can enter text, take a picture, or even make a quick voice recording.
Synchronize OmniFocus with your Mac using the OS X version available separately from omnigroup.com/omnifocus.”

Google Chrome
Google Chrome was released yesterday for windows, and google have promised that Linux and Mac versions are in the pipeline. I downloaded it on my laptop and played about with it for around 1/2 an hour.
Initial impressions are that it is very fast and doesn’t seem to hang up on flash content quite as much as Firefox, rendering being very similar to Safari’s (being based off WebKit, this is to be expected), but I did not see anything really compelling that would make me switch to it when the Linux version comes out.
I’m sure that I will download the Linux version and play about with it when it finally makes it way out of the googleplex, but in this particular incarnation, I think that there is very little that it offers over firefox and safari – certainly nothing worth writing home about. Your opinion may vary from this depending on how important flash is to you, whether you run Linux, and whether you rely on Firefox extensions. Still it looks better than the IE8 beta in terms of memory usage.
Edit: Security vulnerability in Chrome has been found already.
As usual please post your thoughts on Google’s new baby below.

The picture of the mac mini I hope to be able to afford, once I have sold my stuff on ebay. It comes with 512MB RAM 60GB HD and Mac OSX Tiger. Look at the full specs
Having used Linux for the past six months, I feel like a bit of a cheat bringing home one of these, but not too bad – at least it will still be usable in a years time, unlike if I chose to upgrade to vista. From what I’ve seen so far, both Linux and OSX are more stable, look nicer and can do more out of the box than Vista. Oh yes, and there’s none of that crappy product activation stuff either. It just works. I’ve been wanting one of these ever since I saw what could be done with iMovie and the rest of the iLife suite.
