How to share? (Am I seeing Daylite?)
alanterra | Jul 13 2006
Right now I use PowerMail for email, AddressBook and iCal for time and people and Kinkless GTD for projects. They don't integrate well. I just hired a part-time assistant to "help out around the computer" and I am trying to figure out how to share information with her, and perhaps in the bargin, get my own applications to talk to eachother better. One thought is to use something like Daylite to organize my life, and coordinate her tasks with mine. Any thoughts about how well this works? If I move to Daylite, should I also move to Apple Mail? Will Apple Mail "melt down" at some point? Does it handle lots of emails comfortably (it didn't seem to at OS X 10.1, the last time I tried it)? Once I switch to Daylite, will I throw kGTD in the trash, or do they complement each other? Should I get two licences for Daylite, or should I get her a .mac account and share addresses thru Address Book sharing? I know this is a mishmash of questions, but I have a mishmash of confusion in my mind. TIA 2 Comments

If you're not tracking opportunities and business, DayLite is a bit excessive. I love it and think that it is easily the best CRM on Mac OS X, but do you really want or need a CRM? Mail.app seems quite adequete these days and its most obvious shortcomings are in how it handles IMAP, but nothing earth-shattering. I think if you're using kGTD you're better off using iCal and iCal-sub/pub to keep in sync. » POSTED IN:
