I personally strongly lack an alternative to projects – Lists.
These are sets of similar actions, which cannot be completed. E.g. lists of movies to watch, music albums to listen to.
Why not projects? Because it’s not a set of tasks you need to complete some greater task. It’s a list.
Why not contexts? Because unless you move a task to a project it stays in Inbox which is supposed to be emptied as often as possible.
Currently I have a label called “Lists” and treat my lists as projects, but it’s not quite right from the logical point of view.
Comments:
it would be great to have a special project be created for storing lists that can be synced with evernote.
Lists could also be similiar to how calander is set up where its collapsed by default – and upon hovering over it- lists would drop down and we could add items to lists.
Noted
I keep lists like that in Evernote. Easily accessed when needed, but not in my way when I am getting things done.
