Acute Softwares Diary 6.5

With the right piece of software, your computer can replace a lot of things. Thanks to software you can for example forget about your TV and watch your favorite TV shows directly on your computer’s monitor. Thanks to software you can also forget about your radio as you can listen to a myriad of radio stations online. Thanks to software you can also forget about traditional paperback diaries; you can keep a diary on your computer.

Let's focus on the last one for a second. What software application can replace your traditional paperback diary? Why the software application that provides this sort of functionality is Acute Software’s Diary. Here is the functionality you can expect to get from the application:

- Jot down notes, events, appointments, websites, things to do, reminders, and anything else you want.
- Set up reminders for important events.
- Visual and audio notifications for the reminders you set up; these notifications will be presented to you even if the Diary is not up and running.
- Automatically records what you do on while using the computer.
- A monthly calendar is displayed in the upper left hand side of the screen.

Before you go get Acute Software’s Diary, take a look at these technical bits and pieces:
Download – the download weighs in at roughly 2.5MB, which is a good thing. It means it will only take a moment to get the application off the web and onto your computer. To my mind, it’s always nice when you don’t have to wait a long time for a download to complete.
Installation – according to the application’s developer, at the time of writing this, Diary supports the following Windows versions: Windows 2000/XP/2003.
Limitations - Acute Software’s Diary is free to try, meaning you can use it free of charge only during a trial period of 30 days.
