Lotus Agenda

Mitch Kapor is funding work on a personal information manager based on ideas from Lotus Agenda (more here). Since there seems to be crossover between what he's planning and my Packrat project, my curiosity about Lotus Agenda was peaked.

After realizing that you must cover up the second hole on a 3.25" floppy in order to format it as 720k, I was able to install Lotus Agenda under DOS 6.22 under VMWare under Linux. It certainly does have some interesting features, and navigating around the text-based interface feels right at home given that I still use Mutt for my email.

If you are curious to see screenshots of Lotus Agenda in action, look in this PDF documentation for Partner's Planner:
