The time management tools that I will introduce you to are:
- Lookeen (through outlook)
- CalendarSpots.com Online Appointment Scheduling
- Nozebe - Getting Things Done (GTD) Web based software
- Toodledo - An easy to use, web-based to-do list. Get organized, stay motivated, and be more productive.
- Rescue Time - A web-based time management tracking and analysis tool
- Plan Plus for Outlook
Below is a short summary of each of the time management software tools.
My favorite time management software is Lookeen Desktop Search. I believe it saves between 10 and 30 minutes a day, if you use Outlook for your email. How?
Actually it is simple. When I want to find an email I use the Lookeen. It is quick and accurate. When I want to find a document I do the same.
All I need to do is think for a few seconds about something unique in the document and then search on those words because Lookeen searches in the contents of the email, documents appointments and notes. The more I search the better I get at searching. Now even when I know where a document is I use Lookeen to find and open it because it is quicker than going through the folders.
The main downside with Lookeen is that you must have Outlook open. This is perfect when you use Outlook for your email. I now use gmail, so it annoys me a litle to have Outlook open using my PC resources. It is worth it though to get the power Lookeen search rather than use Windows search. Previously I have also used Copernic desktop search which is also excellent for the same reasons.
