filed in Getting Things Done, To Do List on Sep.09, 2009
Folks who are new to the site will know that i used to use remember the milk as my main to-do list /task management platform. Well, the good thing about using remember the milk or rtm for short is that they have a group of enthusiastic developers that really focus on what they do best and tries their best to make things easier for us to get things done.
Today they added a few new things to their already very sophisticated web task management platform.
Smart Add
An awesome feature. They are going to let you enter the due date priority tags and location url in one single field. This is a definite improvement for power users.
^ adding due dates by invoking ^
^ adding priorities by invoking !
^ add list and tags by invoking #
^ adding location by invoking @
^ adding repeating by invoking *
^ add time estimation by invoking =
so to summarize you get somthing like this:
Pretty neat! Thats why i fell in love with remember the milk in the first place!
Smart Add support for Twitter, Gmail and Email
Add support for the new Smart Add syntax in different Remember The Milk interfaces. Aside from the web app, you can also use Smart Add when adding tasks in Remember The Milk for Gmail, and when adding via email and Twitter. It’s also available in the API for third-party developers.
Clicking of task cell selects and checks task
Speed Improvements!
One thing that really gets me off was the slow speed due to the freaking number of lines of javascript they use. Man i could have swear if they come up with a desktop client it will be much better.
All in all, its a great improvement for Remember the Milk fans, task management never seems so fun before!
