Activity Tracking

I’ve been looking for a program that would allow me to keep track of all the tasks/activities I have to do in a given day, allow me to set specific time restraints for them, and not be a total bear to use.  Well, LifeHacker found it for me.  I’ve been an iGoogle user since pretty much the beginning, so this was a welcome find for me.

Urgent or Important?

Ahh, another “age-old” question. Is something urgent, important, both, or neither? How do you classify either of these? Are they the same, or are they slightly different? And last but not least, how can use these two words to help you be better organized? Now there is an answer, and it’s not nearly as tough to implement as you might think.. (think Hipster™)

Tiny Todo

My to-do list is so long the chances of marking off every item is slim-to-none.  The problem isn’t that I’m overworked or stretched to thin, the problem is prioritization.  Enter the tiny todo list.  It doesn’t replace the list you have now, it allows you to be a little more organized within that list.  Check it out, I’m planning on starting mine today.
