Gmail Finally Gets To Do List

by Terrence O'Brien on December 9, 2008 at 03:45 PM

Google Finally Gets ToDo ListGoogle has finally addressed one of the biggest complaints about its suite of personal productivity applications -- no task management. A new feature, which can be turned on via Gmail's experimental Labs (go to settings -> 'Labs'), adds a simple task list to your inbox, just under your 'Contacts' list.

Clicking on any empty space in the list allows you to immediately create a new task, and any Gmail message can also be turned into a task by selecting an option under the 'More Actions' drop down menu or with the keyboard shortcut <shift>+t.

Google's new task list is nowhere near as powerful as the Remember the Milk sidebar for Gmail, but if you want a quick and dirty to do list, the new Gmail tasks feature should do just fine. [From: Official Gmail Blog]
