Software development company CuteReminder Labs released in the beginning of June 2004 the personal information manager Cute Reminder 2.0. The softwares purpose is management of personal notes, reminders and ideas. Specially designed user interface cares for saving user efforts during intensive use. The software is distributed as shareware.

(PRWEB) June 23, 2004 -- Many years ago, when personal computers were just exploding onto the scene, using software was a peculiar skill. The user had to learn the software before actually using it. Since that time, personal computers have been spread widely, and using software is no longer an extraordinary skill, but integral part of many professions. Now most of the users are quite skilled, but they are urged to learn even more. The comfort of an end-user is often sacrificed to adding new features to the product. The result is software user interfaces become overloaded.

People using personal information managers (PIMs) generally mention the overburdened functionality of the software and discomfort because of the inconvenient interface. Cute Reminder aims to solve that issue. It consists of three integrated parts: (1) commonly used desktop notes, (2) gentle reminders operable within one or two mouse clicks and (3) support for idea generation and selection. The quick access panel of Cute Reminder stays always on the desktop hiding like taskbar; it provides instant access to the applications basic functionality.

Desktop notes are similar to their paper prototypes at the maximum extent possible; they hide their title bars sparing the space on the desktop. Reminders are rapid: two mouse clicks to set up, one click to postpone or confirm, no clicks to view details! Every operation is quick and simple with Cute Reminder. Alerts are not annoying but gentle, thanks to clearly visible sign appearing on the right side of the screen (instead of attention distracting pop-up window that is commonly used in PIMs). All that provides the user with the feeling of simplicity and comfort while using the program. Support for idea generation and selection provides the user with the unique opportunity to benefit from his/her own creativity even when doing routine business.

The distinguishing features of the Cute Reminders interface are its simplicity and user friendliness. The interface is split into two parts. The first one is aimed for quick performance of routine functions (creation of notes, setting up reminders and storing ideas). The second one is for advanced functionality -- schedule, printing, automatic archive, customization (including individually colorable skins), sound support, etc. Among advanced features, one should be emphasized. It is event-chaining feature, peculiar to task management systems. Cute Reminder automatically tracks the history of related events and stores the information into archive. Thanks to this feature the history becomes more than a set of events turning into set of cases.

Cute Reminder implements two-level user interface, which saves efforts and improves comfort at workplace. Integrated management of notes, reminders and ideas provides the user with the convenient tool for daily work. Advanced features like history and event-chaining make Cute Reminder extremely useful at the office; highly customizable interface will be of interest to home users.
