<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><br />So this morning, I discovered some interactivity between <span style='font-family:monospace'>getting things GNOME</span>, my tasklist manager, and <span style='font-family:monospace'>tomboy</span>, my note taking application, that I was not thrilled with. Perhaps it was user error as I did not fully understand the way they were working together to start out. <br /><br />Upon updating <span style='font-family:monospace'>gtg</span>, I selected the option to synchronize the <span style='font-family:monospace'>tomboy</span> notes with my tasklist. This resulted in a huge amount of tasks being added to the database. I was ok with this at first, but then this morning as I was looking to add new tasks to wrangle for today, they got lost in the long list of notes. So I deleted the tasks that were notes, which also deleted the notes in <span style='font-family:monospace'>tomboy. </span>No big deal, these notes didn't actually have anything in them, they were essentially place holders for notes that needed to be taken. (Please do not ask me to explain that.)<br /><br />Since the <span style='font-family:monospace'>tomboy</span> synch has been turned off, I do not expect to have this problem again, but I have learned a valuable lesson about how deeply the interactions can be associated between these applications. Now, I am beginning to wonder what other applications can be deeply integrated into <span style='font-family:monospace'>getting things GNOME</span>? </div>
