At last! A program that quickly, methodically and simply lists and orders every aspect of my business- which I break down into tasks...great.
I love most of the features (do not remove or change anything here).. Especially love activating the 'Project' function and the whole tree heirachy idea. Very simple, easy to use. I would like to post my five future improvements: 1) The 'Professional' version should be "My Business Organised" - slightly more complex project and business management tools and a smarter looking GUI (See Merlin 2/Microsoft Project for example)- Dashboards are nice! Improved views, such as a Timeline (linear) representation of my tasks spread over my suggested times to complete, Charts creation and other useful tools aimed at businesses. Additional 'Note' or 'Header/ Footer' tasks (simply used for referencing and annotating what you are working on) similar to html coding for example. 2)The ability to turn a piece of text within a task into a 'link' to the file in question on your hard drive (to easily open and reference it). Alternatively, Allowing the Notepad section in MLO to accept copy/pasted pictures and Word documents as well as HTML/website images and text, other than simply text. Means you can store more info regarding that task in one place. The Notepad should 'pop out' I think too- allowing you to fully reference and see the document as and when (a third view mode to the current two). 3) Mac OSX support - I am about to go Mac/ipod so would'nt be the same without MLO_Business. (iphone support needs to happen asap!!) Will MLO ever be made for Mac? (I love PC 4)Better ToDo Tab- A linear chart or mapper with the text labels attached for example (as a secondary to do/chart view). Way too many To-do tasks in a row for my project (over 900!)- need to somehow structure it better so it looks more fragmented/achievable! (like project software again, without menu after menu and manual reading) 5)More options regarding Folders/Tasks- such as a 'Master Project Folder' (could be a different colour and larger for example), which would help to separate the tasks from the projects, and visa versa. Goals (Aims), Master Project Folder (for say, an entire business output), (Projects (Objectives) -The major tasks, and sub tasks (Actions) etc. If anyone is thinking, that man needs Project Management Software instead- Listen up! I'd rather not have to learn a new program, or require anything that complicated. I like the quick, simple element to MLO and the way I plan my business. I am not a Project Manager either - I am developing a Social Enterprise in the Arts and kind of utilising MLO as a way to get my brain in gear and stay organised, achieving company outlines as quickly as I can. Thank you MLO makers!! - I really hope you give my ideas consideration. Matt -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
