Does anyone have any suggestions on an e-day planner of sorts?

Asked by Grisaille (12048points) April 5th, 2010

I suck at time management, always have. I’m just looking for a program or web application that’s free and relatively painless. I’m working with a combination of Excel and a physical notepad right now, and though functional, it is clunky as hell and makes me insane.

Preferably something that allows a bit of data input. I like to add notes and jargon to my itinerary (Read: jokes for myself, because I am a crazy person.)

Thanks y’all.

I use the combination of Remember the Milk, and Google Calendar. They work very well together.

The most efficient for me is a good old fashioned monthly calendar. They are thin, lightweight, the same size as all my other documents and writing is a lot faster than data entry, still. I use different highlighters to color code types of commitments/deadlines. The only limitation is that you are constrained by the size of the box for each day. Writing really small or drawing arrows to margins usually solves that problem for me.

I’m looking into everything that has been said. Thank you.

I did want to direct you to something I was directed to by the user Sarcasm

http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/

Looking into that as well. Thanks again, keep the suggestions flowing!

I do! I use Microsoft Works Calendar. It was already on my computer, I just didn’t know it until I did a computer search for calendar a couple weeks ago. I really like it.

Rainlendar was recommended here on fluther by PnL. I downloaded it and installed it and am thoroughly satisfied with it. It does everything I want and isn’t loaded down with a lot of junk I don’t want.
