So, I am not knocking To-Do in general, in fact, I applaud Microsoft’s efforts to provide As with the very simple Google tasks, I am sure there is a market for To-Do among casual to-do list management users. I look at To-Do as sort of similar to Google tasks, which is another very limited tasks module. But all those lacking features preclude you from making They provide advanced users a way to really nail down their comprehensive daily Many people use, and they provide ways to take MYN and 1MTD to the next level. See, I have a ton of optional task views and processes that I also teach, and To greatly limiting your flexibility for sophisticated task management. The other deficiencies are unfortunate too because they lead Though again, there are some 1MTD possibilities-with tweaks to the system. In terms of which of these features are really important, the lack of 3-level prioritization and the lack of a start date field kill it for MYN. The main issue is this: Microsoft To-Do is designed for a different audience than my MYN audience, and so it lacks some really important task management stuff that MYN users come to expect. So, I will write up how to use To-Do with 1MTD in a bit, for those that need a simple app like To-Do. Don’t activate this app on your existing MYN task list without a lot of thought about what might happen.įor 1MTD, there are some pretty good possibilities for use, but only if you are willing to stop using desktop Outlook’s task module as your main task interface. UPDATE May 15: See my warnings below and in comments. Well, for MYN, my short answer is: “not until they add a ton more features.
