OmniFocus <--> ToodleDo Sync
 
[url]http://groups.google.com/group/oftd[/url]

This is in another thread, but is so cool and works so well, it needs more attention:

- ToodleDo.com is a free, pretty powerful, online todo list
- It has a nice iPhone interface
- With the above script you can sync your projects, contexts and inbox
- You can schedule it to happen every 10 minutes
- It has growl notification
- It is FREE

While I cannot wait for the full OmniFocus iPhone application and sync, this is a damn good little solution. It gets you a website interface when your computer is off and an iPhone interface.

To fully get into Toodledo, make sure you visit all the account settings where you can turn on different views (like Contexts).

Pretty damn powerful.

Oh, and it has a FireFox plugin with a sidebar and a key command new todo (Alt + Ctrl + A)

So very very cool.

I might be in heaven. Now, if could bookmark a new task as a button on my iPhone.

Oh yeah, you can do that as well!

This is awesome - works great. Thanks for the heads up!!!

BwanaZulia 2008-02-05 07:18 AM

Cool. Glad you like it.

Been using it for a few days and really love it so far.

This doesn't work.

BwanaZulia 2008-02-06 12:53 PM

Works pretty well even with 1.0.1.

Thanks for the positive feedback. I've just posted the first non-beta version and made the Google Group open to the public (membership not-required). At this point I'm waiting to see what Omni comes up with before investing a lot of time in new features. Though even after we have an official app, this solution will still have value for people who need to share tasks, or want to have access from the iPhone without doing a plugin-sync.

Did you send in the request to OmniGroup allow for an AppleScript call for just updated things?

BZ

ptone 2008-02-07 08:12 AM

Its a little more complicated than that, because I would ideally like to know all of the tasks that have a mod date > X AND are visible in Perspective Y.

So I'll always need to use the document window object unless Omni can build a perspective into the model side of their applescript support (I think that's unlikely). However it would still be nice to use a mod date "whose" test with the "leaf" class of the content tree. (And that will make NO sense to you if you aren't familiar with AS and OF).

I don't understand, but as long as you have sent it into OG and asked that they support it, I am good.

Sync stopped?
 
Has anyone who has used this to sync to Toodledo suddenly have it stop working? I have used this script for about two months and it has worked brilliantly until this week.

Now, nothing. No error message. No information transferring at all.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

BwanaZulia 2008-03-07 12:57 PM

Check the Google Group.

Thanks
 
Thanks, BwanaZulia. I went to Google and saw most people simply uninstalled and re-installed. I sure hope the iPhone SDK will alleviate this problem. My first purchase at the APP STORE will be a OmniFocus product...I hope.

Thanks again.

Toodledo
 
Toodledo was actually my last GTD app before Omnifocus, and I love this integration. If you haven't checked on the iGoogle widget for Toodledo you really should. It's extremely convenient.

Have you seen the new dashboard Widget
 
[QUOTE=BwanaZulia;34076]Check the Google Group.

For those interested, there is a new dashboard widget. Fast and great! Find at the connections section of Toodledo

Leopard only sadly :o(

Guess who is still on Tiger!?

schakwin 2008-03-22 08:48 AM

There's also another to-do web app called Remember the Milk that looks even more powerful and less cumbersome that Toodle-Do.
Of course, these are all stopgaps pending the appearance of the real deal for iPhone.

even thought the iPhone is just around the corner - I thought I'd give this integration a quick whirl...I have the same issue as Tim states in this post:

[url]http://groups.google.com/group/oftd/browse_thread/thread/9841ef641bc61cab#[/url]

I can't post publicly and haven't gotten a response back from him yet.

any chance anyone here has any pointers to provide in regards to getting my prefs set up?
