RYFX Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 (edited) Just curious as to how people stay organized with daily tasks/business. If you use software or not, please provide any info possible as to what you're using and the advantages to it. Thanks, RY Edited March 13, 2006 by RYFX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evostrata Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I write stuff to do on a whiteboard then wipe it off when I have done it. I have tried software solutions but I can just never get along with them for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuxic Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Software for me. A combination of my smartphone and software on the desktop (Outlook at the moment) are what try to organise my life. It's all a waste of time really, as I'm still disorganised as hell :laugh: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RYFX Posted March 12, 2006 Author Share Posted March 12, 2006 (edited) I would've thought more neowinians would have said software....nice to see people still using the old pen & paper methods. Edited March 12, 2006 by RYFX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VGVL Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I've been using my Pocket PC but I don't like it that much. I think I'll start using a Montblanc pen and notepad; much classier and I find it easier to stay organized with pen and paper than software.

I had a palm pilot for about a month, then I sold it. I just found myself spending more time trying to get it to work the way I wanted it to, rather than getting anything productive done. Here is a handy site I found for a DIY planner. They have some nice free templates to download. I also found this slick notepaper replacement at Doane Paper.
