    Before you even get a chance to roll your eyes, let’s make sure of one thing: we’re not talking about multitasking. That’s been talked about forever, mulled over, and thoroughly dissected. And while multitasking is a pain, a source of frustration, and a rabid consumer of productivity, we’re not here to talk about that. We’re…

    First things first, to answer the subject of this very article, I'd like to announce that we at Best Practical will no longer be actively developing SVK.  We won't be implementing new features or working to improve performance.  Rest assured, however, that for at least the next 18 months, we're committed to making sure that SVK will continue to work…

    One of my favorite things about Hiveminder is the number and variety of systems it can talk to. Since we launched, we’ve wanted a way for you to be able to talk to Hiveminder. We’ve just integrated Jott.com with Hiveminder. Jott is the “missing link” service that lets you dictate notes from your mobile phone.…

    I had a bit of time this weekend, since I wasn’t busy with client work and most of my friends were off at Arisia or The MIT Mystery Hunt. I took advantage of the solitude to do some work on task review and the mobile interface.  Review has been far too slow for far too…
