As I spend more time with Linux I’ve been slowly modifying my most often used apps. I have been experimenting and trying alternatives to some old favorites as I quest for apps that work with both Windows and Linux. Perhaps a lofty goal, but I think I’ve been getting close. Not quite ready to update

There is no native Linux version — and I get the impression there never will be — so traditionally I’ve installed the Windows version under wine. I grabbed My aging phone, a Mogul running Windows Mobile 6.1, has been giving me a lot of grief lately. I can handle the occasional lock-up (yeah, Windows has trained me well! #conditionedResponse) but it got to the point that I was missing text messages and locking up just as calls were coming in. Very annoying and It took me a couple months of indecision (first pondered in July) but this week I took the plunge. A year ago I whimsically decided to abandon my reasonably fine and working OneNote based GTD (Getting Things Done) system and move to Evernote. I’m not entirely sure (anymore) what my motivation was, but I can theorize I’ve recently been pondering and/or reconsidering my decision to switch from OneNote to Evernote a year ago. It seemed like an easy choice at the time, but I’m not entirely convinced I’ve truly gained in a way that has made me feel more productive. Subjective, yes I know. Bear with me as I think out |
