I have almost completely abandoned MLO for the moment because I can't make it work for me in the context in which I currently find myself - namely a frantic go live situation - where I am being deluged with critically urgent tasks almost every minute.
The problems are a) capturing these tasks; b) identifying the most critical and putting these in some sort of order to be done today; and c) not forgetting the other tasks. Maybe I missing something but I just can't find a way of using MLO that helps me here and I revert to using an old fashioned spiral bound notepad on which I have pages for . Do now/today . Do this evening . Do later this week . Talk to my boss about . Talk to my colleague about When a new task comes along, I just write it on the appropriate page. The problem with MLO in its current form is that you add stuff in the outline and then work out priorities and when you are going to do it. All of which takes far too long. What I need here is the ability to quickly go to a box/page/place which has a priority/name associated with it and put the task there directly. And to then have the ability to drag tasks between those boxes It would probably go into the Outline in the 'Inbox' or some other designated place for tasks added directly in this way. Which brings me to the 'calendar' - this would be one way of doing things - if I could go to a particular date (eg today) and just add a task there directly, this would be so helpful. I could then drag tasks between days. And even split days into parts (eg critical, urgent, very high priority, Incidentally, what has happened to the calendar?
