OmniFocus for iPhone: Location-Aware Contexts and More
Merlin Mann | Jun 10 2008
The Omni Group - OmniFocus for iPhone and iPod touch [Disclosure: I'm a consultant on the OmniFocus project. You can blame me for having requested any of the features you don't like.] Oh, man. It's so nice to lift the veil on this one. It's been like I knew you guys were getting the big Lego Millennium Falcon for Christmas, but I couldn't tell you until Santa had gone back up the chimney (in his black mock turtleneck and jeans). Anyway. Merry Christmas, Mac productivity nerds: iPhone synching for OmniFocus is coming. And it is gorgeous, usable, and location-aware. More here on OmniGroup's blog. From the OmniGroup site:
Yum. Screengrabs and more -- including a reminder that you should totally visit me at the WWDC OmniFocus meetup tonight -- after the iJump.
FWIW, I'm going to let OmniFocus answer any questions people have (blog post comments, forum) about details of their apps and plans and what have yous. I just wanted to take the opportunity to fist bump the OmniNerds on their fine hard work. They're pathologically dedicated to taking care of their customers, and you can see that in this app. It's crazy-smart and a lot of fun to use. So! Yes. Tonight. Come to the OmniFocus meetup at the W and fistbump me: The Omni Mouth » OmniFocus meetup in S.F. on 6/10/08
Also, completely off topic, there's a rumor that there might be a totally informal, last-minute You Look Nice Today meetup in SF tonight featuring @scottsimpson and me (@lonelysandwich is at a Fannypack Convention in Prague). Stay tuned to @ylnt for details as they emerge. [Again, with the Disclosure: I'm a consultant on the OmniFocus project. You can blame me for having requested any of the features you don't like.] 16 Comments

 Universal capture for OmniFocus via e-mailSubmitted by mhuyck on June 14, 2008 - 1:23pm.
One thing you can do with OmniFocus is add a Mail rule which will create OF actions from an e-mail you've sent to yourself. This means that if you can send e-mail from your phone you've got universal capture. I have Snappermail on my Treo, but have found that the SMS application also allows me to send e-mail, which is a very nice, lightweight, universal capture solution. » POSTED IN:
