cool tool: Balsamiq form making mockups of apps or websites
also Product Planner – for designing user interfaces
What project management / task timing solutions are out there for an ultra small web dev operation?
trying:
ClockingIT free, hosted, time tracking; extremely well engineered, but not very nice to the touch - but hey it's free. i've
5pm - well reviewed, lovely looking, pricey ($18 5 users, 10 projects) though I'm trying to talk 'em down for a one man show ($10 1 user, 10 projects).
the 5pm team seems to have forgotten to include a calendar. This app is completely project focused - the calendar section is a timeline of projects. This is difficult for my mixed life right now - do I need to have a project for Olivia? so that the task Pediatrician visit has a deadline that show on the project timeline? jeez.
Action Method – nice design … free for 50 tasks, max is $12 month …looks really nice … almost GTDish with it’s focus on next actions & backbuners … actually I’d say it’s a clever knockoff … without mentioning mr.allen at all. No apparent client view …
ok so it looks nice, but the time tracking is not really there, it's an estimate to completion. the program is nice, it's basically a nice gtd application - very loose drag & drop tasks etc ... but, it doesn't have the hard edged time tracking .... time tracking could be a side app, I suppose.
there's another time tracking app coming out soon, minuteglass. I signed up for beta but no word when things will open up.
