New Features

What's new in Gtdagenda?


New: XML Export

06/14/2009

Until now we had two options to export your data: Print, and Email. We just added another option: XML export.

You can save anything from Gtdagenda as a XML file directly on your computer. Take your data with you wherever you want, or save it on your computer as a backup.

Improved Checklists with AJAX

06/12/2009

Now you can update your checklists much faster. There's no need anymore to select multiple checks, and then use the "Update" button...

A single click will do the trick now!

Tasks management faster

05/27/2009

The Tasks and Next Actions sections of Gtdagenda now work much smoother. We've made some big improvements to the way tasks are managed. Every action that you perform on tasks now takes place on a single screen, with the power of AJAX.

Here's a comparison on how tasks management has been improved, how it was before vs. how it is now:

Adding a task - before: 2 page-loads, now: Zero page-loads.
Editing a task - before: 2 page-loads, now: Zero page-loads.
Marking tasks as done - before: one page-load, now: Zero page-loads.
Moving tasks between contexts and projects - before: one page-load, now: Zero page-loads.
Setting/unsetting Next Actions - before: one page-load, now: Zero page-loads.
Deleting Tasks - before: one page-load, now: Zero page-loads.
etc

All of the above now can be performed with 1 or 2 clicks and with Zero unnecessary page-loads.
