I Heart Tweetie for Mac
Apr 20, 2009 Information, Internet, Software Design
This post is for those of you on Twitter that I promised some type of feedback on the Tweetie for Mac application. In review, I love it. Its sleek design and UI make it pretty intuitive for the most part. I am primarily a TweetDeck user for my Windows boxes but, I decided to make the switch on the Mac. The application can be downloaded for free at atebits.com and is an ad-supported version. The regular price for the full license will be 19.95 but it is being offered at an introductory price of 14.95 until May 4th (why not conco deMayo? Just kidding) Keep in mind that this is completely my take.

Major League Baseball and Major League Software Project Management
Mar 31, 2009 Baseball, Project Management, Software Design
First let me begin by saying that MLB and MLB Advanced Media have done a fantastic job of integrating and developing new and cutting-edge technologies. They really have an immense understanding of their fan base and what their fans want. This was illustrated by the overhaul of MLB Live product that was sunset by MLB.TV. While MLB Live allowed fans to interact with each other during live streaming games, the new MLB.TV features extras such as picture in picture and DVR technology. Good stuff, but I am here to talk about MLB At Bat 2009 for the iPhone.
MLB At Bat is an iPhone application that debuted as At Bat Lite in the beginning of 2009. The Lite version was basically the 2008 version of the hot iPhone app that provided live game scoring. I saw this as a must have for all baseball fans that happen to have iPhones. While using it they would push a notification that the full version would be available by April, 2nd.

TickTagDo Beta – Task Management Made Simple
Sep 23, 2008 Software Design
This image illustrates the ability to create hPDA Generation from your task lists, among other features. I have been assisting with the beta testing of the product and am excited about its launch. Some additional features include the ability to export and import tasks and a nifty little tag cloud that helps you to visualize the tasks that you have to do.
As a project manager, I can appreciate this tool and would recommend it to anyone to help them to outline their daily tasks. The software is developed in Adobe Air, which makes it operating system agnostic.
Check it out at Godev Software Solutions.
