When I want to add a simple reminder to my calendar, I have to launch iCal, find the date (if I’m lucky it’s in the same week I happen to be displaying), click to add an event, double the event name to edit it, click yet again to make time adjustments, then place a bandage on my bleeding head from banging it on my desk. It shouldn’t be that difficult.
Thankfully, Remind Me Later (Free) relieves me of the keystrokes and the bleeding head.
Remind Me Later lives in the menubar, and allows me to add calendar events using simple plain language in a single dialog box which I can activate with a keyboard shortcut, or clicking the icon in the menubar. It’s even smart enough to understand that fri 530pm means “this Friday” at “5:30 pm.” I just love how simple the interface is, and am amazed at how such a single feature app can make my day easier.
Once you download the app from the website or the Apple Mac Store, you make a few configurations in the preferences and you’re off and running. If you use iCal, and add frequent new events, Remind Me Later is virtually the perfect add-on.
Great add-on.
It is great to use iCal as a quick alternative to having a diary of lots of post-it notes with reminders. It can be very time consuming if you have multiple small reminds you need to input and this is a great way of helping speed up the whole process.
I love these blogs that uncover small gems that may usually be missed by so many.
Great Work, Keep them coming.
