Hiveminder, The Ultimate To-Do List

Hiveminder is a new service from Best Practical, the guys that made RT, which is the world’s coolest ticketing system. It was announced at OSCon a couple weeks ago, so it’s still brand new. And very shiny. Like everything else interesting and worthwhile, it’s still in beta and requires an invite…but today was just like Christmas, because I got one. Ergo, a review, just for you.

EDIT (8/7/06): Jesse, of Hiveminder, has just informed me that they’re now open to the world. No invites needed…so go sign up!

For those of you that have to read the last page of a book to decide if it’s worth it, I’ll go ahead and put my summary up here at the top. I know, I know, I’m too kind.

What is Hiveminder? In short, it’s a to-do list organizer. So now you’re sitting there thinking, “But [blank] site already does the same thing.” Nah, not really. It’s like all the other sites together with a dash of sprinkles on top. Because it rocks. And if you’re familiar with RT, you’ll feel right at home with the interface. Hiveminder gives you the flexibility to be vaguely organized or anal retentive, to work all by your lonesome or collaborate on the tasks with a hundred people. It has more cool features than a candy stores has candies. Or something like that.

I don’t yet know if I’m going to regularly use Hiveminder. Since I’m too cheap to buy a PDA, a site like this might come in handy. However, if I do decide I need a website to organize my entire life, Hiveminder’s definitely the one I’ll use.

Guess what it’s time for now?
