Mac mountain lion

I love my apple products, and i indeed think their computers and operating systems are far better than the competition. I will say that the new mountain lion preview has me worried. 

I dont want all that crap. I dont want to tweet from every app, i for sure dont want notifications like my phone has, and it looks like more and more fluff added to a great system. I hope they let me shut 95% of that consumer garbage off, i have work to do. 

Clear App

Clear is a new to do / list manager iphone app from realmac software and its very cool. From a minimalist standpoint they are doing it right. Love how easy it is to add, complete and sort tasks. 

My only few complaints are fairly simple. 

  1. i wish i had some sort of alerts / due date on tasks
  2. sync. I have an iphone, ipad and 2 macs. I want my list on all 4. 
  3. mac app. I would love to have a simple mac todo app like this. Multitouch could make the same UI work.

Apps are fun, but writing things down feels more concrete

Minimalism

Its not going with less for the sake of less. It’s doing the most with a little. 

There are two ways to be rich: One is by acquiring much, and the other is by desiring little.
