It seems you can set up categories/contexts and have the program give you reminders. One cool feature appears to be the ability to link to files or URLs on your computer, and clicking the links take you to that file or Web page. Another allows you to use your Address Book to bring up phone numbers or email addresses when the time comes to make that call or write that message. Still another allows you to bring it all together with a Quicksilver plug-in.

For anyone who is still a bit sheepish about the DIY aspect, Rachel Cunliffe of New Zealand has put together a flash tutorial on how to get it started. I have to say that it’s not too hard. If you have a semi-guru nearby who can hold your hand for half an hour the first time, that really can be helpful, too.
