![]() That's the defining characteristic of a To Do.Īnd it is the "very basic" capability that TB is missing □ When I come back to Project X I want to see the significant ToDos associated with Project X, and I want to be able to view their context.Īnd, importantly, I want to be able to see them in order. However, I work on multiple big projects, and each of these has things that I need to take care of over time, which have large amounts of context that TB is perfect for storing. "Why would you put those in permanent storage?" (rhetorical question - you might, but I don't need to □ ) or "whatever" is fine for "today's todos" and even "this week's todos". It's because the only ones I want to even track with a tool are long lasting background ones that are part of a bigger context. There's also another very good reason why for me _some_ todos need to be in TB. That's why any todo management has to be minimal cogintive overhead, otherwise it's simply too much in the way. (It is also much less resource intensive and stable than TB9, which is very important to me right now.) It is neither shiny nor new, and it requires no time consuming or distracting effort to keep everything managed and organized. In the meantime, though, the app I'm currently using works just fine. ![]() Your kanban system is by far the cleanest and simplest system for managing tasks in TB that I've found, and I may revisit it at some point in the future. Glad to know your strategy is still working for you, Andreas. So I stick to my way of organizing things and ignore other apps. ![]() But nothing helps, you have to DO the tasks and not be distracted by the MANAGEMENT of the tasks. I link emails I drag into TB (otherwise I forget that they exist), but normal todos go into a simple list in the notes field of the current week.Īnd, most important, there is always a more shiny app waiting behind the corner. But in addition to what I posted earlier, I do work 80 % with pure notes now. It's just the opposite for me: I keep coming back to TB for organization of to do lists:-) None of the shiny specialized applications work for me. PersonalBrain 4.3 Experimental Release Archive
