In our last article, we looked at how schedules can run away with themselves, when I put the article together I gave some thought to applications that can be used to help in the production of plans and tasks. Of course these days most of us carry around a mobile phone. Perhaps it’s no surprise to find out that there are a number of project management related apps which enables us to plan on the go.
