I started using Remember The Milk several months ago, but after a while fell off of the bandwagon because I was not going to the site that often to keep it updated. the main reason that I originally started using it was because of its integration with Twitter. I receive notifications of when things are due as a text message to my phone. I added RTM widgets to my NetVibes and IGoogle pages to see if that would help me keep up with it, but I found that the widgets kept refreshing my page. I didn’t like that my homepage was constantly refreshing. It also logged me out often and I would have to log back in. It reached the point where I just was not using it on a regular basis.
Then the other day I went back to visit the site because I had not been in a while. There was some cleanup that I needed to do and was considering deleting my account because I just was not using the service. Then I found the GMail add on for Firefox that is available. I am always into my Gmail page so it is often that I would see my list of things to do. The add-on is also capable of letting me add new items and set them into the correct lists with due dates and priorities. So I am back on the RTM Bandwagon and loving it so far this week. This is IMHO the best To Do List Manager out there and the way it utilizes Twitter is my favorite feature.
I would like to know your thoughts on how you keep track of To Do Lists or how you have used RTM. Please comment.
Good post. Between my Outlook calendar, phone and a new service (JOTT.com) I can stay on top of things.
Sounds like you might also like the gmail info available at the Leadership Network’s blog – Digital
Thanks for the link Cynthia. There are all kinds of good hacks for Gmail there. I use several of them currently.
