One of my favorite Windows Mobile software companies just sent word of their new web 2.0 service for online task management: Task2Gather. According to the company, you can put your tasks and projects online and invite family members, colleagues, or clients to participate in the tasks with you.
Online task management is nothing new, but sharing out the tasks / projects with others is an interesting twist. They’re also working on iphone and Windows Mobile clients to go along with it, so soon you’ll be able to manage your tasks on the web and also on your handheld.
Testing
In under a minute I signed up and created a project called reviews. I then created a task tree with three sub tasks, and then subtasks within those. Next, I clicked Share, typed in an email address of the person I wanted to share the task with, and then resumed my work. Moments later an Invitation ticket arrived in the inbox of my friend’s mailbox.
Overall, the process and interface is pretty intuitive, aside from me typing over my task a few times while I got used to the interface. I can definitely see myself using this as a reviews manager, and a number of other things, especially since the company will have iPhone and Windows Mobile clients that are compatible with it soon enough.
Task2Gather is currently free so check it out at Task2Gather.com.
