Studyminder and Cute Reminder Standard Edition Software for Windows

OutlookReminder
$0 - Outlookreminder.com

Automatic appointment reminder by phone from Microsoft Outlook. A FREE Outlook addin that takes advantage the telephony capabilities of Voicent Gateway, a VoiceXML gateway software from Voicent Communications, Inc. Free version available.

The alert pop up window from Outlook is useless if you are not in front of your computer. This program solves the problem by enabling Outlook to call your cell phone or any phone for the appointment alert. The appointment reminder message, containing subject, location, start time, and notes, is read by computer over the phone using text to speech technology.

Easy to use and fully integrated with Microsoft Outlook. Since it is an addin, the program automatically starts when Outlook starts, and terminates when Outlook terminates. OutlookReminder adds a Reminder Call page to Outlook's new appointment dialog. In that page you can specify whether to make appointment reminder call and the number to call. At the appointment reminder time, the usual alert window will pop up and an alert phone call will be made automatically. The default is no reminder call, so everything is exactly the same if you do not set up the appointment reminders.

You can set up Voicent Gateway in another machine and have this program connects to it over the network. This is made possible by Voicent Gateway's web capability. It is easy to share a common gateway by different people or at different locations, such as one at home and the other at office.

Appointment reminders by phone is also possible by using Voicent AutoReminder, another product from Voicent Communications, Inc. The product contains an easy to use calendar, similar to Outlook. If you do not have Outlook, you should just use that program. Free version available also.

Ideal for mobile professionals. Never miss an appointment again.

FreeMind
$0 - Free Mind Software

FreeMind is a premier free mind-mapping software written in Java. The recent development has hopefully turned it into high productivity tool. We are proud that the operation and navigation of FreeMind is faster than that of MindManager because of one-click fold/unfold and follow link operations.

So you want to write a completely new metaphysics? Why don't you use FreeMind? You have a tool at hand that remarkably resembles the tray slips of Robert Pirsig, described in his sequel to Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance called Lila. Do you want to refactor your essays in a similar way you would refactor software? Or do you want to keep personal knowledge base, which is easy to manage? Why don't you try FreeMind? Do you want to prioritize, know where you are, where you've been and where you are heading, as Stephen Covey would advise you? Have you tried FreeMind to keep track of all the things that are needed for that?

Uses of FreeMind:
Keeping track of projects, including subtasks, state of subtasks and time recording
Project workplace, including links to necessary files, executables, source of information and of course information
Workplace for internet research using Google and other sources
Keeping a collection of small or middle sized notes with links on some area which expands as needed. Such a collection of notes is sometimes called knowledge base.
Essay writing and brainstorming, using colors to show which essays are open, completed, not yet started etc, using size of nodes to indicate size of essays. I don't have one map for one essay, I have one map for all essays. I move parts of some essays to other when it seems appropriate.
Keeping a small database of something with structure that is either very dynamic or not known in advance.
