My Tools @Work

The empty Windows section looked so sad, I thought I'd post something here. Any other Windows users hiding out there? [I can definitely understand the appeal of Macs (some wonderful software out there that's Mac-only, for one), but I've just always used Windows (or, *cough*, DOS) machines.] Outlook for email, calendar, and a little task management
Bonsai desktop (for the bulk of my Next Actions, task, project management)
I'm just doing my best to record everything in one of these two tools -- contact information, tasks, projects, lists, etc. 18 Comments

Another Outlook archive tip to avoid outsized .pst files--you can search your mailbox by file size--you often find three or four versions of the same gigantic .tif file or whatever. Delete any repetitive versions that don't do anything for you. If you really need to keep file & original email together, set up a folder for huge files with an autoarchive of 7 days. The "Mailbox Cleanup" option in the Tools menu has other good tools to prune giant and/or ancient files. Also, encourage people to put large files on your network whenever humanly possible, rather than emailing back and forth. If that's not possible, try to save files to your hard drive and delete the email. » POSTED IN:
