Webthing of the Week: Remember the Milk!

As mentioned in yesterday's blog post, having a solid to-do list is essential in order to ensure a productive day.

Remember the Milk is an online tool that helps you organize and manage your tasks easily and efficiently. If Remember the Milk was a movie, then To-Do Lists and the Internet would be the stars.

Take a look at some of the cool features Remember the Milk has to offer:

  • Create tasks. Just set a due date, and you're good to go! You can set certain tasks to repeat (ex. Go to the gym every Tuesday and Thursday), and Completing or Postponing a task is just one click away!
  • Organize tasks. Sort your tasks by creating custom lists (because, after all, finishing that essay and getting your eyebrows done don't exactly fall under the same category). You can also assign different levels of priority to tasks, so that you can tell what needs to be done at a glance!
  • Print Schedules. Need a hardcopy of your schedule? The website has a printer friendly format so that you can print out your weekly assignments.
  • Be reminded. You can receive reminders via email, SMS, and instant messenger. Set up a reminder today for something due next month, and avoid those horrible last-minute stress attacks forever!
  • Stay connected. You can share, send, and publish tasks with your contacts or the world. Remind your friend about that club meeting on Thursday, or bug your sibling to do the dishes this week.

Remember the Milk is a great service because it is accessible. No time to add a task through the website? Fire off an email from work or from your phone. All your important duties and meetings will be in one place.

So this weekend, give Remember the Milk a try. To help you get started, the site provides a fantastic Getting Started page.

Have a wonderful weekend (and don't forget to pick up the milk!)
