I’ve had a book for awhile that I purchased and until now didn’t get a chance to read. I started reading it this week. It’s called “Dreaming in Code” by Scott Rosenberg . It’s the story of an innovative software project called Chandler and the trials and effort involved in its development. I like to read these things. It helps me formulate ideas and motivate me more towards Behold.
I’ve only read a few chapters so far, and I had gathered from all this that it was a project that never completed, and this was the story as to why.
Yesterday I received my weekly PCworld mailing that had an article on the 25 Best Business Software Tools and Web Services . It took me completely by surprise to see that Chandler was listed.
Chandler is alive and well and is available free for download and online. I’ve been looking for years for a good ToDo list / Organizer, and I must have checked out 2 dozen different programs for that, but nothing has suited my fancy that I stuck with. I bet my frustrations have been the same ones that the developers of Chandler have had.
I downloaded Chandler and I’ll try it out. It is to organizing software, what Behold is to genealogical software.
Now I’ll have to finish the book and finish Behold.
