Fun, Easy and Powerful To-Do App: Hit List

Written by Angela Yee. Posted in Personal Organization, Web Tools

If you have read any of the other posts I have put on this site, you’ll have discovered that I’m a bit schizophrenic when it comes to task management systems. I’ve jumped from system to system. Part of this is due to life changes, another part due to my need for change, and another one because I love to try different ways to get organized.

So here’s the one that I use now. Not only have I used it for a while, but I totally love it! It’s called Hit List and it’s the best one I’ve used yet. Unfortunately, it is only available for the Mac. But the good news is right now it is free as it is in demo mode!

    I love this idea! I have definitely been thinking about implementing it. Problem is … I have a home/school desk downstairs and a work desk upstairs so sometimes I am running back and forth and can’t find my lists. So I ended up using the computer for to-do’s (not as fun as paper though).

    Sorry about the confusion. I was referring to the brand Moleskine.

    These notebooks look cool! I’m wondering if you mean by “moleskin alternative” that they are not made of moleskin. Or maybe moleskin is a brand and not a type of material?

    Forgot to say – once you realize you are indecisive and that actually trying to “make the best decision” is probably the most inefficient thing to do, then just opt for the quickest method. In this case, the result doesn’t matter that much, so you can do that. Whereas in something like making a big purchase, you just have to take the time to make the best decision.
