Spring Cleaning (#28)

I have been working on and off in April trying to clean up the inbox in Outlook and delete old files on my computer. I read the GTD (Getting Things Done) article. The article gave guidelines for managing tasks. The guidelines were similar to other articles I have read on organizing. The guidelines are not hard to do but time consuming. Also it is easy to get off track and start stockpiling things again.

As far as tools for organization,I already have a PDA but I looked at the online calendars anyway. Good thing I did. I had forgotten that I had a link to the YALSA Google calendar until I clicked on the link while I was logged in iGoogle. I think the Google calendar is a great way for a large organization to remind its members about events. "Remember the Milk" was interesting but I don't want log onto a computer to make a shopping list or any other to-do list. Good thing you can synchronize with Windows Mobile. I'll keep it in mind just in case it may be useful one day.
