hookproductivity.com
In today’s world, we are bombarded with information from a variety of sources. PDFs, eMails, web pages, task managers, calendars, information managers, mind maps, and more can make it difficult to stay organized and find the information we need.
Hook is an app that connects digital data and allows you to open linked items without having to search for their physical locations. This app has the potential to change the way people work by making it easier to access the information they need.
It’s easy to share Hook links. Just open the Hook app and copy the link you want to share. You can copy a link to a website, web page, or file. Then paste it into another program or share it with other Hook users. When they click on the link, it will open the website, web page, or file you shared.
Hook’s bookmarking feature allows you to search for any hooked file. Simply type your search terms, select your desired item, and you’re done! No more tedious physical searches required.
Benefits to using Hook:
- copy links to anything (even to emails and files)
- use these links anywhere (notes, todo lists, calendar, etc)
- link to specific locations deep within a PDF
- use two-way links to navigate to related files.
- share links with others to save time.
- all hooks are automatically bookmarked.
Hook can be used to create a hyperlink to anything on your Mac, which is more powerful than the default MacOS file link.
Creating a two-way link can be really helpful- like if you’re using a task manager and you have a link to a Safari web page. You can link it back to the task manager so you can easily go back and forth between the two. In your task manager, just create a link to the task with Hook and you’re all set!
