Why We Love Remember The Milk

Why We Love Remember The Milk

Remember the Milk is an online to-do list manager. We started using it at Alt Creative as a way to manage our client maintenance requests. We got tired of letting the inbox be the to-do list because it is impossible for email to help you remember deadlines, keep notes, and update statuses.

Remember the Milk has tons of useful features including task list sharing, email/SMS integration, tagging, advanced search, iCal integration and keyboard shortcuts. Everything is stored in the cloud, making it easy to check from anywhere – even our phones. And best of all, it’s actually easy to use!

Below are some of Remember the Milk’s best features:

Manage tasks quickly and easily.
An intuitive interface makes managing tasks fun. Set due dates easily with next Friday or in 2 weeks. Extensive keyboard shortcuts make task management quicker than ever.

Get reminded, anywhere.
Receive reminders via email, SMS, and instant messenger (AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Google Talk, ICQ, Jabber, MSN, Skype and Yahoo! are all supported).

Organize the way you want to.
Are you a list lover? Create as many lists as you need. Into tagging? Use the task cloud to easily see what you have to do. Want to store notes along with your tasks? You can do that too.

Locate your tasks.
Use the map to see where your tasks are located in the real world. See what’s nearby or on your way, and plan the best way to get things done.

Work together to get things done.
Share, send and publish tasks and lists with your contacts or the world. Remind your significant other to do their household chores.

Add tasks wherever you are.
Adding tasks is as simple as firing off an email (even from your phone). See an important date on the web? Add it to your list with Quick Add.

Take your tasks with you.
Access your tasks on your web-enabled mobile device. Print your entire list or a handy weekly planner which shows upcoming tasks. View your tasks on your calendar with Apple iCal or Google Calendar. Subscribe to feeds with Atom/RSS.

Plan your time.
See what’s due today and tomorrow, and the things you’ve missed. Prioritize, estimate your time, and postpone with ease. Set tasks to repeat every week orafter 2 months.

Search your tasks the smart way.
Find the tasks you want with advanced searching. Save your searches as Smart Lists, and easily see tasks that match your desired criteria.

Enjoy getting organized.
