State of Sync, Part 1

Jürgen Schweizer, of Cultured Code, discusses the cloud sync solution for Things:

The final release of cloud sync as part of Things is still off by a few months. But we plan to publish more details about what we are doing (and have been doing) every few weeks.

Let me end this post by expressing our sincere gratitude for your patience. Driven by ambitions that were almost too high, it has taken us much longer than we expected. On a path lined with unanticipated obstacles and letdowns, it felt at times as if we would never get there – but we kept believing that we would be able to create a fine solution; a foundation for many cool things to come.

It is now in reach.

I know plenty people who have jumped ship because of the lack of cloud syncing, and rightfully so if that’s a must-have feature for how you work. For me personally, I’m still on the Things bandwagon, mainly because I do not own this app for the Mac or iPad. I own it solely for the iPhone which means I have no need for the syncing feature.

My to-do list is something I do not need to have on multiple devices. As long as I can get to it with my iPhone, the one device that’s with me at all times (unlike my MacBook Pro and iPad) then I’m good. (via Shawn Blanc)
