Personal Project and Task Manager
Software
05/06/2004 02:52 AM

I have always used some kind of database application to track tasks and to-dos (and sometimes billing when I've been consulting), from the first custom application I wrote in the 1980's in Paradox for DOS, to a Filemaker database in the early 1990's, to an Excel spreadsheet in the late 1990's. What application I use seems to have more to do with what platform I'm spending most of my time in than the inherent qualities of the application itself. Mostly, I want the application to stay out of the way and be as easy to use as a text file. These days, I'm spending a lot of time around web servers and have them running on all 4 of my computers, as well as at various data centers, and I am running a fair number of web applications locally on my laptops and desktops, like a Wiki, a family weblog and an RSS aggregator (Feed on Feeds). I still don't have the data synchronizing seamlessly between the different computers, but I'm getting closer. It seemed natural to try a web application to keep track of my task list for some projects I am working on, so I recently started using Alex King's brilliant little Tasks personal to-do application. I've fallen in love with it. As someone who has been part of designing several web applications, I know that doing good web application user interfaces is very hard. Tasks has one of the best web application user interfaces I have ever seen. King makes smart use of Javascript to enhance the functionality of the forms, and he uses small graphics to create a clean, uncluttered and highly functional look. It is very easy to enter, modify, re-arrange and view tasks. And, unlike lots of web applications, it seems to work well with a multiplicity of browsers. It is a well thought out, fast, lightweight server-based application. The only thing I don't like about it is that King picks font sizes that are too small for middle aged eyes -- luckily those are easy to change in the stylesheet. If you want to have access to your to-do list from anywhere, or if you are already running web apps locally, and if you are comfortable installing a PHP application on your webserver, I highly recommend Tasks, both the older donation requested version and the updated $30 one. King just seriously upgraded Tasks...

New Project for Cataloging Personal

New Project for Cataloging Personal
Collections
01/26/2004 12:03 AM

From time to time, somone will email or IM me and ask for a recommendation for software to catalog their personal library. I'm happy to report that there is a new solution called LibDB on the horizon.

"This is the development wiki of LibDB, an open-sourced Perl/MySQL library and asset management system based on and inspired by the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (pdf), triples from the semantic web, and "the end-user doesn't, and shouldn't, need to know this stuff". In English, this means that you'll be able to smartly and easily catalog your movies, books, magazines, comics, etc. into your own computerized "personal library".

Further information is available under ProjectGoals (including user profiles).

LibDB is still in the very early planning stages, and we're currently focusing on movie-related cataloguing. As such, most initial concrete and forward movement will be catered to movies, but realize that the final versions will be far more than just movies. The LibDB database is defined in such a way that you could describe books and other forms of media, even if the interface assumed you were entering film."

There are lots of reasons to note this project. I don't pretend to fully understand the intricacies of this, but it's "based around the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records" (FRBR), but it will be very extensible and will allow librarians and other anal-retentive types to slice and dice their collections in multiple ways. Oh, and it will be free!
