If you put non-date-specific TODOs in your calendar, then as soon as the number of TODOs in that system becomes overwhelming, you stop looking at your calendar and start missing appointments & truly date specific reminders.
If you put date-dependent TODOs in your task tracking system, then every time you look at it you see a bunch of stuff you can't move on and you quickly lose effectiveness.
If something is dependent on a specific date or time, either because it is an appointment or because it is nonactionable until then, put it in a calendar or tickler file. If not, keep it the hell away from your calendar and put it on a TODO list (plain text file is fine). This keeps both systems effective.
The dilemma : The key evaluation point for the challenge is "How the app will promote the use of office paper and the benefits for the user". Even though this is just a challenge, I'm worried if my idea takes off, it would result in increased paper production which will result in increased cutting of trees.
So freecharge now allows u to send or request money from WhatsApp chat. There is a disclaimer that this has nothing to do with WhatsApp brand. Tried the feature out and my fear came true. They wanted explicit permission for accessibility to be given to Freecharge.
Based on which they'll now listen to
certain keywords u type in WhatsApp and a dialogue appears from Freecharge.
Not sure if I should be excited about the new feature or worried about privacy / potential malware threats.
With Amazon's notorious history of locking up / wiping devices in name of DRM (ref 1, ref2) , I wouldn't be surprised if people would prefer pushing it directly to kindle instead of through Amazon. (Atleast one layer scrutiny is avoided).
That's correct. It goes to your Amazon.com Kindle account. But we also let users download EPUB and MOBI versions directly without sending to Amazon servers. So that's also an option if you prefer to side load the files.
Sorry you had trouble with the Android app. Anything in particular that bugged you?
It's essentially a simpler interface to our web service. The same one used by the web app. So results should be the same from both. But you cannot see an article preview or edit the article's title as you can with our web app.
Oh, and thank you for submitting this here, btw. Was surprised to see it. :)
You're welcome. I've been an avid user of the web version ever since I bought my kindle. So kudos to your efforts :)
I was never able to use the Android app properly because it didn't allow me to use my kindle account. My account goes something like this [email protected] . But the Android app always added [email protected].
