Summer 2009 PIM roll-call

I was reading through the November 2008 thread where folks were listing off what they were using and for what purpose and learnt about a few new programs.

I’m curious as to how setups have changed in nearly a year.

My own setup is pretty minimal.

Most standard PIM stuff is being done through Google - Gmail and GCal, with Remember the Milk thrown in for to-do lists.

I’ll probably switch to a desktop client (considering Postbox) since I’ve now got multiple e-mail addresses to track.

Evernote 3 as a note repository, though I’m starting to find it somewhat underpowered for my needs. Only issue is being in love with the web sync (and being able to access it from my Blackberry…not enough desktop software syncs with the Blackberry, damnit!)

I’ve been toying with TKOutline for writing outlines, transitioning from doing them with pen and paper.

OpenOffice.org or sometimes Google Docs for most work. Though, there is a freeware word processor called Q10 I’m kind of fond of. Has the stripped down DOS word processor look, but with live word count (a feature missing from almost every Windows word processor except Word 2007)
