Hashtags - an alternative to lists in Microsoft To-Do
Datum: 2023-02-23 08:17
The other day when I was holding a structure training session with a client in Massachusetts, we talked about how to best structure the to-do list in Microsoft To-Do.
A list per colleague?
I often see that many people use the “lists” they can create in To-Do to represent the different colleagues they have things to do with and for. However, this makes the list easily unmanageable.
No, give them a #-tag each
It is better to let the sub-lists represent the different projects or areas of responsibility that you are responsible for or involved in.
If you want to easily see all the tasks related to a particular colleague, specify it in the task using a #-tag — for example, #David. Then you quickly get an overview of everything you have to do related to David — regardless of which project the task is part of. Handy!
