Lists in Remember The Milk
Productivity Web Services / / December 23, 2019
Lifehacker has already written about the wonderful service Remember the Milk, now I have decided to tell you about some of the methods of work in it. In the beginning you have to type procedure simply www.rememberthemilk.com for that would get to their tasks, but you can just rmilk.comThat quickly.
I broke their lists into two groups, static and so-called "smart lists". Static, which are displayed in gray in the figure, I create for all ongoing projects. And in the smart list of search results according to certain parameters.
Smart list is a great tool when working with business. I made «10min» list for not doing things that take less than 10 minutes, he just created. In the middle, we introduce the following combination:
list: Incoming and status: incomplete and timeEstimate: »<10 min"
What does it mean to take all the things that are not finished in "Inbox" of less than 10 minutes.
Now we have a new list in problems. If you remove the request from the «list: Incoming" we get the search through all the static list.
Examples of the use of search and "smart lists" set such delegation. I have an assistant, Kate, when creating a task that I had been entrusted put two tags "Katya" and «@control» and create a list based on "tag: Wheeling and tag: @control» request. In the generated list of my all tasks for all projects entrusted to Kate.
As you can see lists made @hour request "list: Incoming and status: incomplete and timeEstimate:» 15 minutes '', as well as calls with a simple «status: incomplete and tag: calls" for the "Calls".
It is very important for making tasks to specify the time of its execution - 20 minutes, 2 hours, etc. I do this for planning affairs in the day on a simple request. I allocate tasks that I want to make today a priority "3", and creating a list at the request «status: incomplete and priority: 3," get the list of tasks for today with an approximate running time.
Ways to Use Smart Lists are so many interesting and often published in the RTM forum
And as a query language for searching
