If you need something better for your daily note taking, there’s an app for that, and it’s today’s Data Doctors tech tip.

If you’re old school and still use lots of post-its, you likely have different colors for different activities. You write all your notes of the day on each individual post-it for each individual category, for each individual day of the month.

Sounds like a lot of work, but it’s pretty dang organized, isn’t it? Well that’s what the powerful note-taking app ThingList does for you. You take notes, it organizes and categorizes it for you!

The categories are everyday activities. Movies you wanna watch. Books you wanna read. Food or restaurants you wanna try. Ideas you may have had that day. People you met, places you wanna go, products you might wanna try, anything you need to remember, ThingList remembers it and categorizes it.

If you have an iPhone, a bunch of things floating in your head and two bucks to spend on an app, ThingList will instantly make capturing those random thoughts a snap!
