Re: Inception Infographics: Which is the Best Inception Infographic? - http://www.infographicsblog.com/incepti...
"Thanks for including my infographic (no. 10) in your review - agree it's a little boring compared to the others and colour could have helped but I still find it far easier to read than most of the others which go way over the top with the graphics. No. 1 is great but it's pretty hard to follow the lines since they're so tightly packed." - David Gilbert

Re: I changed my opinion after seeing this Interview with Color’s CEO, Bill Nguyen - http://arnorhs.com/2011...
"Great interview but Color reminds me of Google Wave: awesome technology which few actually understand how to use or why they need it. Perhaps once they've improved the UI it'll become clearer but it'll take a lot of convincing to get early adopters to give it a second chance..." - David Gilbert

Re: Managing Tasks [RTM, TextExpander, Tweetie, Milk Maid] - http://matthewhooper.disqus.com/managin...
"Nice article. I use Gmail Tasks for my personal tasks and Basecamp for my work tasks - love both for their simplicity. I don't bother about due dates just arrange the list in order or priority and work top-down. I find that tasks lists can be as crippling as the tasks themselves so just try to keep it simple!" - David Gilbert
