Task management apps exploded with the introduction of the iPhone App
Store, and leading the pack was Cultured Code's Things, which earned an Editor's Choice award
from us back in late 2008. The iPhone version of Things had been
adapted from the previous Mac iteration, and though it successfully
distilled the essence of the popular program into a portable package,
Cultured Code had to significantly simplify the way Things worked to fit
it on the iPhone/iPod touch screen.
But now, with the iPad and
its glossy 9.7-inch screen on the horizon, Cultured Code is closing in
on a version of Things that'll find the happy middle ground between the
two versions, pairing a touch interface like that of the iPhone with the
screen real estate of a much larger device.
