Hello everyone and welcome back to the Keep Productive YouTube channel, my name is Francesco D'Alessio and in today's feature
We are going to be exploring a something that you guys have pushed me towards for the last couple of weeks
Especially on Facebook group and on social media, too
There is an application called Edo Agenda
That's "e d o agenda" and it's available on web on iOS and Android in the today's video
I wanted to explore the public beta which is available now this application
Hasn't been out long in public beta maybe like six months, I think
Don't quote me on them. I'll add a bit of information about the company below because again,
These are startups
Essentially this wants to try and coordinate your work space in a bit more of a flexible fashion
but still gaining
structure and what I want to do today is
Review the application give you a nice overview of the experience
And what I want to do is hear some of your opinions below now the core goal of eddore
Genda is really to plan the day ahead
So here in front of me is the web version of ed agenda as I mentioned
It's in public beta so believe you can access this
And what I want to do is run over the sort of core experiences of air to agenda and give you some of my thoughts
So as you can see here this I would say is the core experience of it is the journal part
and if I'm honest this application really does remind me of a blend between
Agenda and coda. It's almost like agenda for Mac and iOS had a baby with coda
Which is a new document style application but to some extent this is trying to coordinate your daily planning
So here we are with the experience called journal and they have other experiences which will demonstrate in a moment
But this is the journal site stuff. So first off on the left hand side, you'll see that it's brought in my Google Calendar
It's got all of the necessary dates and information and of course you can scroll down and see all of your advance
It's almost like having a mini calendar on this side now
Let me just scroll to the day among which is a 90. So here we are
It's giving me all of my times based on my google calendar, which is quite useful and as you can see here
It's got this panel in the front and essentially from here
You can pretty much create whatever you need to so its goal is really trying to create a journal
Experience as well as well as a Productivity
Focus, so for example here I could maybe put most important
tasks and
below I can use the
media tab or the media sort of element bar to either write some text to write a header to write a sub header or even
Add tasks now we can create a note here or it can even create a task list
Upload a file as well as add a link in this case. I'm going to create a task. So for example, I want to put
you know buy groceries and
As you can see it appears below now this task
it gives you all of the details so you can actually add a description as well as files and
Description you can set a time to it
So for example if I'm like actually I'm gonna pick them up on the way home today
I can add a specific time. And as you can see this almost peers in the left-hand panel
Inside of this view it doesn't correlate it directly to the times here. So for example, it's not
Slipping into this area here, but it actually does appear on this left-hand side
Now you can actually set a color to it if you want
So for example green for groceries and click Save and it appears same on that left hand side
And it gives it a bit of a sort of definition inside of the experience
Now you can move it about if you had multiple of them
You can even add I think setting a priority premium again, or you can move it to something called floating tasks
Which we'll talk about in a bit
Now if I wanted to delete it or one that I had below that I can do that quite easily
And you can see here that this one up here is really as almost like a pointer to it
But you can add anything. So for example, let's give you a few demonstrations
Let's say you had your most important tasks at the top then you had a meeting with John in your team
so for example, I could create a
subtitle, good meeting
With John
and
Below I wanted to create some notes, so I created a note
And it's a premium future actually. It's going to give me access to it. But again, you can create a notes just below there
So I'm just going to move it just below there and that will create a separate note. There's almost distraction-free
And if I want to go into that note
How do you do that?
So there we are I'm inside the note a little bit buggy out with the beater
I think but as you can see I'm inside of the note I can start typing away about that meeting
Now if I wanted to I could just add details down here
I could just make like bullet point and sort of type away about that
but in this case
I don't want to and of course I can create a note below
So you can do a whole host of other
Multimedia to that and as you can see here just by adding a few things
It gets quite busy along this left-hand panel and that is the case currently
I'm not sure it's available to modify it in description or the sort of the settings
But that's something just to be aware of so maybe you've had your tasks. You've had your meeting
Maybe you want to add some of your own personal experiences from the day. And of course you can do that
You can even create task lists, which we'll talk about a bit as well as upload files and add links
So there's a whole host of things here if you wanted to delete them
Multi-select, I believe you can delete from no you can't that's something that you can't do
But if I wanted to delete them and go off I can quite easily do that. So I'm just going to move
Remove link away from that so you can see here that if I don't remove the tags on the side
It's it keeps them still here
Which is a bit of a pain but snaps a general sort of day view
Now if I wanted to actually go down to another day, I could click the day and everything appears
It's a blank slate for that day, which is really really useful
Now over on the left-hand side you probably wondering what is a floating task
So for example, let's say you had a bunch of tasks to create
and you wanted to drag them onto your experience a bit like tic tic as with the arrange task function you can do so for
example if I said like, you know buy flowers and
Added that as a floating task and of course, you can add all the content select changed the actual date time notifications repeat
Priority which is a premium experience and actually aid color as well as descriptions files and links
Which is very helpful for all of the lovely stuff you wanna enter tasks
So let's say I wanted to add I know something more important like an event conference
Like an event conference if I added that here so for example if I'm like, okay, I'm gonna plan this day
I'm gonna drag these tasks
onto here and as you can see they're created as
well as being available here so I can actually access them from this panel here and if I wanted to actually like
Bring the actual thing over to a different day
Wednesday I could do that just from there without needing to go in that specific date. That's where it becomes very helpful
So that's the sort of Journal experience the general experience in my opinion is good very buggy
Something I would probably fix with the formatting first the text formatting seems a bit sort of messy on this M
But I sort of like the concept itself being able to have this sort of panel view to see all of your tasks and activities
You know, it's quite useful but some extent I think it needs a little bit of work cleaning up
I do like this panel view on the right-hand side
I mean you can even see a timetable of your date here, which is quite nice
So if you want a more in detail view here
You can either see the floating tasks or a timetable view of that which is quite helpful
So apart from that that's the journal experience. I'll just go to floating up floating tasks in floating tasks
you can add as many as you want and this could be do if you just want a mind dump and
Then when you get to your journal view you could throw in
so for example
Let's say I've had loads of like ideas
And I want to dump them all on the tasks area and then add them later to the thingy
So that's quite helpful
Now you can create the collections out of these if I want to do so, for example
if I wanted to create an inbox, I could I now can dump all the tasks there and
Inside of that journal view if I want to do this one here
I can actually select inbox there and then clear all of my inbox items
Or even do that the same with a certain project or activity
So now quite a neat idea in terms of being to arrange a task
That is something that's available in ticktick and I think works quite well
So note you probably wondering note. What is here?
so for example, you can start creating notes if you wanted so you could say meeting notes and
Within this one, you could create your own notes and get started. It's pretty easy. And the great thing is you can pin them
Or you can associate them to also you can see them all as a window and have everything now
I'll just change the view like that. So that's quite handy
Inside of a note you can add more details you can't export because that's a premium experience
I will talk about the premium expenses near the end
So yeah, so e for example to-do lists you can create lists per things
for example
If you've got a project or maybe a grocery list that you want to go through it
So event conference here is available through work
you can add to it really easily and you can complete items through there, which makes it all the sort of the
Access is so much easier. I'm not sure whether you can associate it into a date
Which allows you to put it? Yeah, you can link it to a day inside a premium
So that's I mean, that's a very bonus feature
So at the final sort of piece of the puzzle is the planner I quite like this view if I'm honest this view allows you
to see all of the activities you've got going on your
tasks as well as all of the details in your Google Calendar you can skip forward you can access and edit stuff from here you
Can pin or open stuff in your journal which is quite helpful
You've got month you year view and everything just sinks fairly well, and you've also got floating tasks
So if you want to drag them onto in this view, you can do that quite easily
Now as you can see, it's pretty easy to get started with you've got a search bar up at the top left-hand corner
So you can search any tasks reminder or details there and of course that's pretty much the experience inside of editor Genda
Now my food different piñas on EDD agenda. It's got a long way to go
I think that they're sort of it's a bit buggy in some areas. I like the concept
HAMP's, I don't think it's a unique idea or I think this is something there is being put together and I quite like the notes
And tasks list sort of concept and having sort of collections there to be able to access
So I definitely see a future for this application
Just one thing here through the thing. You can create an event task or a selected day
So if you do want to add to your Google Calendar, I believe you can through this application, which is very helpful
Now let's just go over the premium because there is a premium experience is two pound forty two dollars
$49 99 per year, which is a little bit cheaper than the other one
So on the premium we get priority level of tasks and sets and in priority you get unfinished task automation
So being able to find those tasks that are not completed and be able to associate them
Automatically to something notes inside of your journal task list inside your journals. So if you want those
collections inside of there more cloud storage so you actually have um
You have two gigabytes limit so you can lock in under eight gigabytes
Which seems a bit like that seems a bit weird that you get like a limit inside of your experience
But I guess once it's associating to files and things like that can get out of hand
exporting and printing is available as well as color palettes third-party calendars so you can sync editor to Google and iCal as
well as
Subtasks, which is coming soon connect to Google Drive or Dropbox
monthly and weekly goals tags and a desktop application
So currently this is available only through the web and also iOS and Android
So they're slowly progressing out and as you can imagine still in beta
Something that I know a lot of people will be looking for it to come out to very soon
Anyway, guys, I hope that you enjoyed some of my thoughts and opinions on our agenda
