ImageIf you are part of the GTD (Getting Things Done) craze, here is an application you might like. Tracks “is a web-based application to help you implement David Allen’s Getting Things Done™ methodology. It was built using Ruby on Rails, and comes with a built-in webserver (WEBrick), so that you can run it on your own computer if you like.”

There is a little config involved, but it is free and the official site offers screenshots of the app and a manual that walks you thru the install.

Image KavaTunes will let you build a website that looks and works just like iTunes. You can have all of your music and playlists anywhere you have an internet connection.

It’s also a fun way to just show what is in your library. You can set a preference to have your iTunes collection on the site, but not have any songs playable. So, if you’re a DJ and want to show potential clients what you have to offer, you can send them to the site.

Kavatunes is $35 and can be found on the KavaTunes site.

ImageProjectPier is a Free, Open-Source, self-hosted PHP application for managing tasks, projects and teams through an intuitive web interface. ProjectPier will help your organization communicate, collaborate and get things done Its function is similar to commercial groupware/project management products, but allows the freedom and scalability of self-hosting. Even better, it will always be free.

For the project management of Macminicolo, we use Basecamp from 37Signals. It’s a wonderful application that has done well for our company.

But, if you are a “do-it-yourselfer” the ProjectPier may be an option for you.
