As we launched the first version of Action Method for the iPhone, we were pleased to track initial responses via Twitter.
The only lingering frustration is the group of people posting reviews in the App Store that claim “there is no way to delete an Action Step.” So we would like to explain: All you need to do is open the Action Step and then touch the “Trash” icon. And, of course, if you are just completing the Action Step, touch the checkbox. Sorry for the confusion between “Trash” and “Delete” – it will be addressed in future versions.
We’re excited to announce the launch of Action Method for the iPhone. You can use Action Method Online to create a whole connected world of productivity. It offers advanced features like Discussion, File Sharing, and Events (deadline coordination). And Action Method for iPhone lets you take your Action Steps with you. It all works together to ensure nothing falls through the cracks again!

Serial innovators Bre Pettis and Kio Stark came together to produce what the call “The Cult of Done Manifesto.” As Bre explains, it was written “in 20 minutes because we only had 20 minutes to get it done.” Talk about making ideas happen…
The manifesto, reprinted below, inspired technical illustrator James Provost to represent the manifesto as a poster (below). No word on how long that took… Read more →
Behance’s Action Method received some center stage attention at this year’s TED (Technology Entertainment Design) conference in Long Beach, California. All TED participants received a subscription to Action Method Online. And, those who attended the TED Prize lunches received a limited edition TED Prize Action Book.
Every year, TED gathers luminaries such as Bill Gates, the Google founders, and other leaders of organizations, companies, and non-profits that are innovating across industries. Collectively, the audience has the opportunity to add value to three “wishes” that will improve the world – announced at the conference every year.
It’s been quite a while since I’ve written here – probably too long. The past couple of weeks we’ve spent a lot of time improving the performance of Action Method Online. We are proud to say the changes are up and running smoothly. We’ve done things from the simply obvious (loading screen between tabs) to the outrageously maticulous (optimizing CSS). Due to these changes everything runs faster including loading time, drag-and-dropping, resizing, switching tabs, and searching. You may have also noticed we got rid of that “2.5 Seconds Remain” countdown after the site finished loading. That always was irritating to us and the optimizations let us finally remove it.

You said it, and we heard it. Based on the great feedback shared by early adopters of Action Method Online (AMO), we have added a number of enhancements to the application. The additions include the ability for you (or anyone else) to email an action step to your AMO InBox (via your own @action.me email address) as well as increased messaging features, multiple delegation, importing contacts, and more… See all of the latest enhancements on our What’s New page.
We were pleased to come across a thoughtful review of ActionMethod Online on CreativeFluff. We also stumbled upon a nice write up by Matt Moore after the writers of BehanceMagazine covered some of Matt’s latest work. It is nice to see some of the early adopters of the Behance Network getting well-deserved recognition, and it is rewarding for us to read their reviews.
It is interesting to “search” on Twitter for a particular product name or brand. Here’s a quick example of this morning’s search on Twitter for “Action Method” (below). In the new age, teams should use twitter searches to “get the pulse” of what people are saying about their products – and to learn from these searches…
