The guys at 37 Signals posted an interesting article about the "Geominder." It's a location-based reminder system for your cell phone. Instead of "remember to call Bob" at 8:00am (time based) you get "remember to call Bob" as your arrive at your office (location based).

The service uses your position in relation to a cell tower (rather than GPS) to alert you to certain To-Do lists. It's an interesting concept, but somehow it makes me just a little nervous. Thoughts?

Me, I'll just stick with my beloved Hipster PDA. It's paper. It works. It doesn't crash. OK, so it won't survive being dunked in the water, but neither will my laptop.
