Mentat

We’re always struggling with task management, it seems. I’ve got a great system for personal task management, but what about shared tasks—things that depend on other people? Or perhaps things that need to be worked on collaboratively… I’d like to have a system that lets me hand tasks off to other people.

And of course, it has to be easy to use, ubiquitously available (like, from any web browser) and ideally free. It would be nice if I could quickly put together my daily agenda from different projects as well—so it’s not just a list of to-do items but actually has some smarts behind it.

If that sounds useful check out Mentat, a new web-based project and task tracker from Brain Murmurs. I’ve just been playing with it a bit… I think we’ll be putting it into pilot here. This looks like an ideal solution for small, collaborative projects.
