How Many Tasks Do You Have On Your Pocket PC?
Posted by Janak Parekh in "THOUGHT" @ 03:00 PM
Kati was lamenting about the amount of work she has to do in this thread, and it got me thinking... a quick glance at my Outlook Tasks folder shows that I have 133 active tasks, 40 of them high-priority. 8O
It's worth pointing out I basically assign high-priority to any task that has a deadline, so that Outlook on the desktop can sort it correctly (if you try to sort ascending by date, it will put tasks with "None" due dates first, so I sort by priority and then by date ascending to get a useful ordering), so 40 high-priority tasks doesn't mean that I've sprouted two more arms to keep myself sane. Still, it's a lot of tasks, and I don't know when I'll finish it, if ever. How about you?
