<p>The best part about <a href="http://www.vitalist.com">Vitalist</a> is the fact that they are listening to their customers. With the combination of their <a href="http://www.vitalist.com/neteffect/">blog</a>, <a href="http://my.vitalist.com/kb/contact/">contact page</a>, and <a href="http://my.vitalist.com/kb/">knowledge base</a> full of previously answered questions presented in rank-order, they have the appearance of <em>addressing users&#8217; problems and needs as quickly as possible</em>.</p>
<p>I complained in a few emails that their mobile version (www.vitalist.mobi) wasn&#8217;t working correctly on my new Verizon LG VX8600 and within a week they had set up a new version of their mobile page (m.vitaist.mobi) specifically for Verizon users like me. Yes, it was my phone that had the issue. But they discovered a way to work around Verizon&#8217;s problem. Flawless. Vitalist has an A++ in my book:</p>
<blockquote><p>
Sorry to not get back to you sooner on this.  We believe the issue is with the Openwave browser on many Verizon phones.  It only accepts cookies from a .com domain.  We have created an alternate url for the mobile app at m.vitalist.com.  Please try this address and let us know if it is working for you.</p>
<p>Thank you</p>

<p>I know I&#8217;ve <a href="http://philipryanjohnson.com/2007/03/07/gtd-with-vitalist/">written about it before</a>, but I just gotta say it again: Vitalist is my solution for keeping my ADD mind under control (or at least manageable). I&#8217;ve used other systems before my attempts to find a replacement for the executive function part of me that doesn&#8217;t work right—the control room or CEO of thought processes that involve organizing, prioritizing, and utilizing cognitive functions of the brain for important work tasks.</p>
<p>Well, I&#8217;m still using Vitalist as a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Getting_Things_Done">GTD</a> system that, well, just works. All my todos are organized by project and context (where I need to be to do them), and anything with a due date is automatically fed into my Google calendar, which then emails and txts me when it&#8217;s due. Vitalist also sends me a daily email as a teaser of things on my todo list. Love it.</p>
