Try out KranK to increase your productivity with Omnifocus

Those of you are familiar with “Getting Things Done” and use Omnifocus might want to check out KranK, which is a widget that integrates with Omnifocus and pops up regularly to ask you if you are working on your tasks.

KranK helps reclaim the Dashboard as the focal point for everything you do on a computer. The Dashboard becomes your grounding point before jumping into the fray. KranK accomplishes this by showing the Dashboard at timed intervals to inquire if you are still working on a task. This helps you stay focused on what you have planned out in OmniFocus and allows you to glance at the other widgets running in the Dashboard.

I never used the Dashboard much because I had to remember to activate the Dashboard to check on widgets. KranK activates the Dashboard for you. It has brought me a new appreciation and significance for widgets because I glance at them whenever KranK activates the dashboard.

The widget is free, but requires a licensed copy of Omnifocus. I am trying it out today. Leave a comment to let us know what you think about it.
