"What do I use Backpack for? To run my life"
Samuel Kordik recently cited Backpack as his website of the week (this was before the recent Backpack Multiuser launch).
He says he uses Backpack "to run my life...I use a page for each of my action lists, and then a page for projects, a page for Someday/Maybe’s, and a page for Notes." Here's more:
Backpack is an amazing website/service from the innovative startup 37signals. It is essentially a web-based productivity/organizational tool. It is slick, flexible, and super-cool. In fact, it combines the total flexibility of a paper-based notebook with the infinite re-writable possibilities of electronic data.Built using the flexible power of Ruby on Rails, Backpack is one of those no-brainer tools that hides mindblowing capabilities. It actually significantly reminds me of an Apple application. It just makes sense...
What do I use Backpack for? To run my life. At this point in my life, it makes sense to have things online. I have internet at work and in my room, and so it provides a handy central point to run things through.
I use a page for each of my action lists, and then a page for projects, a page for Someday/Maybe’s, and a page for Notes. This flexible solution works quite well for me.

Do you use a 37signals product in an interesting or noteworthy way? Let us know.
