How I “To Do & Notes”
Published on . Updated on
I maintain all my to-do and notes in a single Google Doc. Each week has its own section with 1) h1 title “Week of @date” 2) to do “checklist” section and 3) notes section made up of an @date and a bulleted list. This means I get docs features including:
- Dock Icon (via PWA to avoid getting lost in sea of tabs – details here)
- Include rich text, screenshots, links, code snippets, etc
- Manage from my phone
- Outline to jump between weeks and expand/collapse
- Link previews for Docs, Youtube, Confluence, JIRA and Figma (Note: Atlassian + Figma require authorization of their apps in the marketplace)
- Keyboard shortcut to open (via MacOS “Shortcuts”)
- (Optionally) Create a Google Task for an item
