Show HN: your personal, self-built productivity tool
14 comments
Here are a bunch of screenshots of my self-built academic productivity system - focused on reading PDFs, taking notes, extracting to a wiki, working on notes etc. http://reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:screenshots
This is supercool. You mind sharing the system?
It's all open source (although a bitch to install - help or ideas appreciate): http://github.com/houshuang/folders2web
More of an anti-productivity tool, but I built a small app to manage my TV watching queue because I wasn't happy with any of the 5+ alternatives I tried.

The "Killer Feature" is really the lack of features: all the other tv episode tracking guides have a bunch of Social crap, cover art, or lacked a unified queue. All I wanted was a single queue of episodes that automatically gets added to when new stuff airs.

Awesome, any chance you can sare the APIs you used?
Sure - it uses the TraktTv API (http://trakt.tv/api-docs) which I believe is based on the TheTVDB. I picked that one because it had JSON (TheTVDB uses XML and you have to request a key).
I run a cron job that polls the API once a day to check for new episodes.

A small web app, with Chrome extension, that I use for managing sets of checklists. The checklists are for jobs I don't do every day but still semi-regularly, so it's handy to make sure I'm not missing a step without visiting stackoverflow, etc.

Huginn is a system of event pipelines, kind of like Yahoo! Pipes, that I use to monitor events of interest in the world.

Mind sharing your product with me, I would really like the chance to use it?
http://i.imgur.com/h2keJDg.png GREAT BECAUSE... it tells me how much I'm going to get paid this month.
Absolutely no ulterior motive here (ie. I'm not canvassing opinions for a productivity app startup or anything), just interested.
