DayLite I have just been saved from sneaking out to by a Win machine by software put out by Market Circle. This product, DayLite, is the first real CRM application for the Mac. For those who have used a CRM before, it does explicitly what a program like Entourage tries to do--create the relationships between calendar events, tasks, to-do's, e-mails and track projects by their different components (meetings, participants, deadlines etc.). It's invaluble if you're managing multiple projects, multiple people. We'll see how well it works . . . I'll keep you posted. The only thing it lacks is e-mail (which the love of my Windows life, Goldmine, does have). But I've decided to switch over from Entourage to OSX Mail--as I type this it's importing all my Entourage folders. All this was sparked when I used the latest version of the Palm-Entourage Conduit on my Handspring, the thing crashed and it seemed to have randomly eliminated 1/3 of my contacts. Possibly Handspring's fault because of their lack of full support of OSX, but in any case, default response is to blame MS. Now if only Market Circle can draw on the address book of OSX. Probably too much to ask. 10:06:29 PM    comment []
