This is the follow up to my recent post about Facebook (FB) and time management. I searched the existing FB Application stock, and there is only one candidate for the desired purpose.
Dolgomvan.hu is a Hungarian developed web application defined as “GTD-style”. Sadly, there is no sharing your todos or posting of the crossed-out items to your profile/status and that is my main idea. No offline tools at the moment either to edit todos.
I can only see the missing features, but the ease of use is really amazing. It is sympathetic, that in the original version you are given the choice to save your data in xml, to opt-out easily, and they are even preparing the possibility to reach your data through an API.
Give it a try yourself let me know how you liked it.
I happened to read a article on how Facebook is becoming a serious problem for companies in terms of time consuming socializing vs. effective work in the office. My girlfriend also reported that after getting her Facebook profile she was found by many members of her multinational company and now she can see them filling silly questionnaires and playing games.
For me, Facebook is mainly about letting my friends know what is on my mind, what I am working on, what interests me. So quizzes, and games are not part of my Facebook picture. I mainly share links with content and post status messages based only on what interests me most. At least for the latter I can imagine a better – time management related – way: a small application for ToDos that can post changes in the list to the Facebook or Twitter profile. So I am going to find if there are any of these in place…
