Fantastical is 50% Off on the Mac App Store
Fantastical is a calendar app for the Mac that lives up to it’s name. It excels in two areas: it’s beautiful design and the ability to add events quickly.
Fantastical resides in the menu bar, so your calendar is always a single click away (or keyboard shortcut), all events are shown in an easy to read chronological list. At the top of the app you can quickly search for events or add new ones. Apple’s iCal is a powerful application but adding events is a lengthy process. With Fantastical you simply type the event details and the natural language engine fills in everything for you. There is no quicker or easier way to add events to your calendar.
Fantastical supports iCal, BusyCal, Entourage, Outlook, iCloud, Google Calendar and Yahoo! Calendar. Flexibits has just added iCal and iOS Reminders support, so you can now add and view your reminders in Fantastical.
The app normally sells for $19.99, but is on sale for $9.99 for a limited time.
Download Fantastical from the Mac App Store and use it on all your Macs for one low price.
OmniFocus for iPad is 50% Off
OmniFocus is absolutely the best app for ‘Getting Things Done’ and the iPad version is by far my favorite version. The OmniGroup makes world class apps and charges a premium for them, and almost never puts them on sale, so now is the time to buy. Pick up OmniFocus for iPad for $19.99 and then start by watching these screencasts. OmniFocus can take some time to learn, but it is well worth the effort.
Sparrow 1.6 is Now in the Mac App Store
Sparrow for Mac 1.6 comes with one major feature: POP support, and a lot of improvements that will make your mail life even easier.
… ‘True’ Unified Inbox
Navigate in your unified Favorites, Sent, Drafts from your Unified account.
POP mail is the big new feature, but I’m more excited about the new unified inbox features. Starred items just became a lot more useful.
I switched to Sparrow right when it came out, and my only complaint is the startup time, and this update is a huge improvement.
If you haven’t switched to Sparrow, you are really missing out. Luckily they have a lite version for you to try.
