“I work as a programmer and web designer and it involves a
lot of concentration. I can either let interruptions occupy my mind and
forget about it permanently – or reQall it!
If I need to come back to something later, I reQall it and keep going with my train of thought. No more loose ends. If I see a great design idea, I grab the phone and leave myself a reminder instead of sending myself email or writing on scraps of paper. It's much safer when driving, too.
When I finish one task, I can open up reQall to see what I need to do. Today, reQall reminded me to call and ask a question. I hit the ‘show related items’ button and there was my Evernote snapshot of the business card with the phone number I needed. Brilliant time saver!
David Allen of Getting Things Done says, ‘Anything that does not belong where it is, is an “open loop” pulling on your attention.’ With reQall, I am better able to keep my attention on what I am working on instead of what I have to do later.”

That sounds like a valuable tool! We all experienced having a lightbulb moment, and then forgetting all about it when we get sidetracked. Any business consultant would recommend this.
