Email is an integral part of our lives. Everyone uses it and many of us still try to treat emails as tasks. We leave emails “unread” in the Inbox to remind us we should do something with them. However, it’s important to decide which emails are truly actionable and which are not. To make sure we make this distinction we always enabled you to send emails to Nozbe to convert emails to tasks - we also gave you an Apple script and a bookmarklet to make it even easier.

Hope you’re doing great and enjoying our latest Nozbe for Mac and Windows version 1.3 with “rich comments” - today I’d like to share with you a very inspiring read for the weekend and beyond.

Getting things done on the move is increasingly becoming a top priority for busy professionals and their teams.

Update: our Mac App version 1.2 is already on the Mac App Store! - thanks Apple! It’s been a crazy time recently for us as we’ve grown our team, made many changes and prepared lots of code to launch new features for Nozbe in the shortest time possible. We’ve had some ups and downs getting it ready but we are, in fact, now ready to tell you what’s soon to happen in Nozbe.

After months of testing and developing we’re finally giving you a new mobile-optimized web version of Nozbe. When iPhone launched years ago, we built iNozbe.com, optimized for the iPhone… and haven’t improved it since as we focused on our native apps… but as we want you to be productive on the move as much as possible and many folks prefer web interface than downloading native apps and people with different smartphones need Nozbe, we listened and for the last several months we’ve been silently developing the smartphone-optimized version of Nozbe.
