I’ve reached a weirdly cool point: Podcast Inbox Zero.
Kira at Londonist: A quick glance through the comments section in the Telegraph article seems to be all the proof necessary to justify the importance of teaching the concepts of feminism in schools

Chandler isn’t very interesting
The Chandler Project, the ever-more-delayed PIM - “personal information manager” - is now 1.0. Here’s the release notes.
It’s what most people now see as a “GTD” app, only when they started building it back before normal people started using the Internet. Only like other GTD apps, it’s feature-to-bloat ratio isn’t very good. Imagine if you took iCal and OmniFocus, hacked them together with all the grace of Microsoft Outlook and made it take a long time to start up and shut down.
You can now get to-do list managers built on top of outliners and text editors, and they are generally very fast. I’ve been using Things.app on the Mac, and have been building a command line interface for it, mostly so that when I’m using my Palm Pilot or any of the other computers in my house, I can add stuff to my inbox. And we bind these things together very lightly - text, XML, Git and HTTP. CalDAV is for grandma.
Chandler lasted all of five minutes on my machine. Sorry guys - good luck and everything, but not for me.
