Okay, so Mondays come way too fast for me to try some of this stuff out. It might help if I played PMOG more, lately I haven’t had the time. Though, if I only did the PMOG Link thing once a month, I’d probably never get around to actually writing it up. Sounds like I need to be more organized. Perhaps the links from yubbie’s mission, Innovative new sites you probably haven’t used to manage your life, can help me.
GrandCentral
So unlike me, you currently have a job and a personal life. You also have a phone for the job and a phone for the personal life. This beta will give you one number and one voicemail to get all your calls. You can have it ring all of your phones to find you, or tell it which phone to send certain people. At this very moment, you have to be invited by someone, but it seems damn handy to me.
Remember the Milk
I know plenty of people, in my daydreams that is, and some of them often call their own answering machines or voicemail to remind themselves of something. I know I am guilty of sending myself an email to remind me of something. Well, Rememberthemilk.com is all about tasks and lists. It’s a versatile little web app. that can work with your Google Calender and various other web apps, phones, blackberries, etc. I have heard several people mention this site a few times, but never played with it. Organizing my life might get me that much closer to adulthood which is definitely something this 35yr. old doesn’t want.
Jott
Hey, remember my imaginary friends above, who call their own voicemail? Call Jott, leave a voicemail and Jott will send you a text reminder, an email reminder or even publish the translated voicemail to the Google calendar or that fun new toy, rememberthemilk.
I have an account with both RTM (Remember the Milk) and Jott. I haven’t yet figured out how to get myself to use them in my daily life. I too need organization but haven’t figured out how to do it. I have a Getting Thing Done (GTD) book on request from the library. Let me know if you come up with some other suggestions.
Its amazing how busy you can be while unemployed isn’t?
