Trying to get uber-organized for studying, whilst staying afloat at work and enjoying Charlie, my lovely little baby…
This is what I have done so far:
- Document store – Created folders in Google Docs for the phases & units of the program,
- Knowledge Base – Created this wordpress blog and added the phases & units as categories,
- Time Management – Created a new Google calendar for study related events and deadlines,
- Planning – Blocked out the weekly program schedule in calendar, this can be shared if your interested, (twitter me @dubaidan)
- Multi-tasking – Synced program calendar with my office and home calendars, so I can see overlaps,
- On the move – Synced Google calender with iCal, (using Spanning Sync), so it appears on the iPhone
- Managing links – Created new tags in delicious account, so I can filter out program links
- Managing feeds – Created new folder in Google reader to manage program feeds
Additional add-ons for Firefox
Zotero for firefox – Citation Management, (will be great once the sync is released)
Google Notebook for Firefox – Keep a shared notepad handy at all times
Delicious – Tag and share my links & references with friends
Twitterfox – Tweets from the browser
Remember the Milk – Getting things done, (GTD), task list, integrates with Gmail
This should work no matter what OS you use, I move between 4 Macs so I wanted my notes, links, feeds, documents, calendars and task list available everywhere, online and if possible shareable, (oh yeah… and free)
This works for me today…
