Countless times each day we are faced with the question of "what will I do now?". Whether the question comes up when you have 10 minutes to kill waiting for the bus, or early on a Saturday morning with a whole day ahead of you, this question can be difficult to answer. Household chores, personal and work projects, social obligations and more all compete for our time and attention, and existing time-management aren't flexible enough to keep up with a the pace of modern life.
Rather than re-invent the calendar, Act Now focuses on two things: entering new actions, and viewing possible next actions. Entering new actions can be as simple as adding a one-sentance description or title of what you'd like to do, and viewing next actions likewise presents you with a simple, ordered list.
It is behind the scenes where Act Now really shines. Rather than requiring you to manually sort and schedule upcoming actions, Act Now attempts to automatically sort and filter your action list based on an action's time estimate, type, or other criteria. Ideally, you simply dump your ideas into the system, and when you have some free time ask it for smart, relevant recommendations.
