Project Management With Elephant Memory Thanks To Evernote
Who has a memory like an elephant, except the elephant itself. You organize your notes, documents, pictures, links - almost your whole (working) life in Evernote? You'll be happy to know that you can link these Evernote notes to your projects, activities, resources and attachments in Merlin Project.
One way is to copy the Evernote link into any text field in Merlin Project. Read how here.
Or you can use our free AppleScript for an automated link. You can find the download in our support article.
Merlin Project Integrations
Get things done with Things
Do you use task planning software, or to-do apps, to organize your thoughts and tasks - from everyday errands to life's biggest goals? Apps like Things and Omnifocus also help project managers micromanage to plan their day and work efficiently toward goals. Of course, the tasks that need to be done in the project should also be included.
It is therefore obvious to send activities from the project plans of Merlin Project as tasks to Things. But also transfer tasks from Things as activities to Merlin Project. The free AppleScript developed for this purpose enables easy data exchange between the two programs. In this way, the two programs complement each other perfectly.
There is also a free AppleScript for Omnifocus users to exchange tasks with Merlin Project. If you use TaskPaper for creating your to-do lists, you can download a free AppleScript from us as well.
Chef-Demo: Merlin Project auf dem iPad
Das erste Mal
Seit einiger Zeit mache ich sogenannte Chef-Demos zu Merlin Project. Hier zeige ich immer einen Anwendungsfall in Merlin Project auf dem Mac und gehe diesen von Anfang bis Ende durch. Der nächste Termin ist am 18. Mai um 16 Uhr. Diese Serie wird aber kontinuierlich weitergeführt, da ich mich jedes mal über ein volles (Online-) Haus freue. Vereinzelt nehmen Leute sogar mehrfach teil.
In den letzten Wochen kam vermehrt die Frage nach einer Demo für Merlin Project auf dem iPad auf. Gesagt, getan – ein Termin steht fest: Am 6. Mai um 16 Uhr findet eine erste Chef-Demo auf dem iPad statt.
Die Demo erfolgt in deutscher Sprache via Zoom. Bitte registrieren Sie sich, damit Sie am Tag der Demo den Link für den Zoom-Raum bekommen können.
Apple's April Spring Loaded Event
Spring awakening at Apple's product presentation
What a fantastic Apple event that was! A well-trained Tim Cook presented a whole series of new products one after another. Starting with the new Apple Card Family, which is currently only available in the US, to the iPad Pro 2021.
First things first, there really was something for every Apple enthusiast:

Congratulations, you are not only a Project Manager, you are a mobile manager!
Being a Project Manager (PM) is awesomely challenging. You are responsible for execution, planning, and closure of projects while ensuring them being delivered on time, on budget, and within scope.
Juggling with so many demanding aspects makes this job very interesting and consuming at the same time. Luckily not all matters need your attention equally on every and each phase of the life cycles your projects are in. Some days you are more into issue identification and resolution, on others you need to calculate your budgeting requests or consider your cost estimations. Most of the time you are simply communicating with your team members and key stakeholders. You exchange information on status, progress or problems.
