Had been eyeing OmniFocus for iPad for a while. Researched a lot but your recommendation helped a lot. Very solid experience so far.

Had forgotten about you mentioning ActiveInbox but wow– very nice!

Great! I use Emacs for all my text editing, coding and text processing. It is not really a productivity tool for me, but I still love it! Thanks for the comment, Joseph.

Nice, I picked up two tools I didn’t know about.

My list:
Emacs Org Mode
Wordpress
VisualTW (Tiddlywiki mod)

Jennifer,
I love both Freemind and Evernote. I use Freemind for planning out projects. Evernote syncs with everything and the sharing capabilities are very useful. Thank you for adding those to the list.

Nice article!

I would also add two more areas of productivity:

one is creative thinking using mind mapping software (Freemind for free or MindJet Manager – commercial)

Second area is saving your notes, links and easy search engine around that – here I recommend Evernote.com which is free and the best. Also there are apps for Iphone / Android / Mac too.
