Upcoming screencast--"To-do" list and reminder applications for the busy lawyer.
The Internet has spawned all sorts of innovative web applications that can make your life and your law practice simpler and more manageable. Getting a handle on your "to-do" list is a great place to start.
There are "to-do" list web applications for everyone, no matter what your preference:
- Do you prefer a stand alone app that will supplement your current system and keep your tasks prioritized on a daily basis? There are apps like that.
- Do you need a system that creates a "to-do" list from your emails? There's a system for that.
- Do you need to be able to access your "to-do" lists from your smart phone, computer, or anywhere you have Internet access? There are apps like that.
- Do you need to receive daily reminders via email, text, Twitter or IM? There are apps that do that.
- Would you prefer to dictate reminders into your phone, which are then transcribed and categorized for you? There are apps like that.
- Do you need a multi-level project management system for your entire life-one that combines your work schedule with your family's schedule? There are apps like that.
The trick is figuring out which "to-do" list apps will work for you, which is often a difficult and time consuming process--especially when you're busy running a law practice. It's hard to find the time to discover the apps, research them and stay on top of the new apps that are released on an almost daily basis.
That's where lawtechTalk comes in. We do the ground work for you in the first presentation, a screencast. This screencast will focus on some of the best free or low cost web-based "to-do" list and reminder applications.
There's more to your life than just your law practice, although your practice is certainly a large part of your busy life. Reminder applications can help you have seamless control over your busy practice and your life.
You can use free or low cost web applications to establish systems that work for you. Some people prefer email reminders, others consider the emails themselves to be reminders, while still others find an entirely separate application that is compatible with their smart phone works best.
In this screencast, we'll explore the main features of some of the most useful and innovative "to-do" applications to help you figure out which will best meet your needs.
Coming soon-at the end of April.
