Re: [MLO] Newbie Q: How well does MLO match up to this?

I think everything you list is covered except encryption -- search the board for previous discussions particularly from Dwight; and perhaps color -- I'm not sure how far automatic formatting goes, but I think you can do it.  

As far as sending to the inbox through email, you would need to buy the cloud service and I think that is what hits against the encryption side. If you did only wi-fi sync I believe you cannot use Task-by-email.

Just a user -

Hi 

I am new to GTD and to MLO.  I have been using a web-only app called GTDNext. But I am frustrated that there is no mobile app version.  I am looking for a tool to automate GTD lists (David Allen)

I am looking for a tool with the following features: 

1. Extremely easy/fast data entry (using lots of hotkeys and only minimal use of the mouse)

2. Multi-levels of Projects and Actions (i.e. sub-projects and/or sub-action )

3. Ease of changing an item between Projects and Actions (and back).

4. Next Actions - i.e. the ability to generate a queue of future Next Actions for a Project, but with the ability to just show one Next Action per Project.  And as soon as you tick off an action as being complete, then the  next action in the queue immediately pops up as the official "Next Action" for the Project.

5. The ability to send emails into the "In Basket" for processing (ideally with tags embedded in the title).

6. Ability to put Projects (and Actions) into some sort of priority that is can be sorted/reported on and which is clearly visible with colour.

i.e. I want to be able to see a screenful of items and without actually needing to read anything, to see which are the most urgent (about 4 levels of priority/color would be fine).

7. "Focus" mark-up. 

i.e. Separate from "priority" to have some bright colour mechanism for showing "has focus" (i.e. I have decided to do this item today)

8. The ability do move projects up and down the list of projects FAST using hotkeys. i.e. To change the sort order of both Projects and Actions within projects very easily

9. Either a good web or PC application...

10. ...that syncs well with a mobile app... that works off-line (as well as on-line).

11. Excellent security/encryption of all my project data

12. A development team that has a history if being responsive to user requests.

How well does MLO match up?

Many thanks
