App Essentials: Priority Matrix (ToDo)
Platform: iOS Cost: Free Priority Matrix is a great todo list application for those of us who use Matrix Views to organize and prioritize our task lists. Unfortunately, I found the app a bit cumbersome to use and went with GNEO instead. Priority Matrix does have a web-interface, which is a huge plus, but I am a bit concerned that they have not monetized the app yet. we are all waiting to see how much the services we have been using will cost… So far this app is a steal. The Video Review Overall I liked Priority Matrix when I first started using it. After a few days, I started...

Platform: iOS Cost:$1.99 As a very well reviewed game, Goblin Sword did not disappoint. Do not get confused though, this game has no education value, and did not stay on my iPad for long. After keeping track of the game on TouchArcade, I decided to give it a shot. After a few sessions of game play, I got bored with the side scrolling RPG style and removed it from the iPad.

Platform: iOS Cost:$4.99 GNEO is a productivity app geared for helping you manage and sync your todo lists. In my search for productivity tools that I can use on the iPad, I always shied away from GNEO – simply because of the price. After adding it to my wish-list, GNEO went on sale and I picked it up on. My only regret is that I did not purchase it earlier. As a fan of the GTD Mentality and Pomodoro, I use GNEO to manage all of my tasks with ease. The only drawback to GNEO is that lack of a Mac App or Cloud Platform. If I could access and maintain my GNEO tasks from a web-interface,...
