Hmm... Not sure i'd use this feature. I know what you mean though, I'm wondering whether it would cause too much bloat? I started out in this whole productivity quest a couple of years ago as I started moving up the seniority chain and became overwhelmed with information in an overwhelming variety of formats - e documents, paper, reports, hand written notes, emails... You know the story. Where I'm at now though is very pared down. I'll action an email by setting up whatever I need to do next in Todo and discard the email (inbox zero). If it has files I really need to keep for reference, i'll save them to an archive folder on my work pc, or on the iPad as a PDF and use goodreader when I need to.
Todo for me is a way to organise my work, not what I use to DO my work. I spend about half hour in it at each end of the day reviewing and have a couple of check-Ins during the day or when I need to capture a new task to my inbox (to be considered at the next half hour review). I suppose my tip is to be wary of getting so caught up inside your productivity tool that you spend more time organising than doing. My two cents and meant as a contribution to the discussion not any slant on your suggestion. These tools are highly subjective and i'm sure in a group of 100 users you'd get 101 different ways to use it. :-) Cheers, Stevo On Aug 6, 9:10 pm, iBaltazarQc <[email protected]> wrote: > Putting it in the project's note field at the moment.
