Why Being Awesome Can be Frustrating

We love a good task manager! In fact I (Frank) really learned how to be a good self-manager by learning how to use a good task application. I was never really good at managing myself in the past.

5 Ways to get More Collaboration and Kill Confrontation

The Story Behind Ta’Go Pro

Ta’Go Pro is still in development, but for us (the creators) it’s alive! We can taste it. On a day-to-day basis we think thing like, “if Ta’Go were done, it would be perfect for solving this problem!” We know what all the crackling and drilling in the lab is going to become and we’re psyched. But what do you care? You don’t know us, and haven’t yet tasted the awesomeness that is our soon-to-be-in-Alpha-testing little web-application. So how can we get you excited?

What is Ta’Go Pro?

A good company or work group needs, among other things, 3 things to be productive and effective: 1) Good Self-Management , 2) Team/Project-Management and 3) Customer Management. Ta’Go Pro is a simple, yet powerful web-based application designed to meet these 3 needs.

Manage Yourself: Ta’Go Pro makes it easy for you to capture all your ideas and commitments in one place, organize those ideas into simple actions and lists. It also allows you the freedom to Tag each action so that you can easily customize it to fit your own style. Into GTD? Use the Tags as @contexts. Want to assign priorities? Use Tags to mark an action as “urgent” or “on hold”. It is flexible enough to let you implement whatever eccentric little system makes sense to you!

Collaborate with, Manage & Track Your Team: Ever come out of a meeting excited about all the great ideas you came up with? You feel great about the possibilities and the new direction they are going to take you in.

Usually, that feeling lasts a few minutes at most. Then reality sets in. You’ve felt this way before and it lead to frustration and disappointment.

What seemed unforgettable during the meeting is now a cloudy blob of ideas and unclear expectations. Who’s doing what? Where do we start?
