I have had a difficult time as of late managing my time wisely. I would not necessarily say that I find it difficult to manage my time wisely per se, but there is always so much for me to do. I still seem to get everything done that I need to throughout the day, but since I am looking for more "eggs" to add in addition to the ones I already have, I think I might need a "to do list". I am wondering if anyone has used something similar to the website below and if so how does it work for you? If anyone else would like to share information on what they use to manage their time, I would appreciate that as well.

I have also struggled with this as well. What i have found that works for me is using Outlook and setting up a reminder in the calender for anything that I need to do. If it's a daily thing that needs to be done then I schedule it and mark it as a reoccurring reminder so it shows up everyday. And I can also make it pop up on my screen to see that i need to do it.
I live on the computer so having this to do list with outlook has really been great for me.
If you need help just let me know.

Ok advertisingmom I have a silly question. I have outlook on my computer, but do not use it as a source for my email, so can I still use it for tasking?

I think she's talking about the calendar in Windows Vista. Maybe? I've never used the outlook one either.
If you have Vista, go to the Start menu, type in 'calendar' or 'windows calendar' in the search and it'll be right there in the list of choices.
You can basically set it to remind you whenever for appointments and it will keep reminding you until you dismiss the reminder. All day appointments, appointments at specific times. You can even set reoccurring appointments.
I use it a lot to remind me when a new work week starts at one job.

Google also has a great calender / to do list that you can use. It is very similar to Outlook.

I use the Windows calendar myself. Works well for me.
