I too am getting bogged down, but I think I need to move the "someday list tasks" to a -1 priority and hide them until I have a little "woulda coulda shoulda" time.

Don't they make medicine for people who can't let things go:-)

how are tags different from context? what are some of your common tags?


Tags can be anything you want. Context would be something you add to denote the place/resource used to complete the task (phone, home, work, store, etc).

Also, a task can have multiple tags, but not contexts. I don't use either field, but if I did I would probably only use tags and just tag a task like so:

Get Milk (tags = groceries, @store)

Less clutter in the app the better!


I started using tags and really like it too. I decided that tags are the person(s) name that I need to interact to help complete the task. If it is only me, no tag. Now I can list all tags in a folder view that is ranked by # of items. Now when I meet with the boss, I sort by his tag or view his folder. He likes it now when I ask him to help me prioritize my work based upon his needs! BTW, my folders are essential separate areas of responsibility - not a person. AWESOME

I have been using TD for a month without taskjot. When I'm out and about, I email toddledo from my BB and it adds the item to my list.

I have not figured out how to email the task with the correct folder or any other fields. I just fix that when I get back to my Mac.

I have just started my 14 day trial with taskjot and will see how it goes. I already am reluctant based ont he pricing scheme. I pay TD $15/year for a great product that I use all day everyday that is extremely powerful. BUT to have it on my BB, I must pay that again for an interface??? How about $7.50 annually for a convenience fee and turn on all the features.

I'll report back soon.

the folder view really helps me accomplish this easily. i have about 300 items, 20 folders, 2 contexts. i look by folder very often based upon what i need to get done in any given area.
