Mac productivity master Merlin Mann details how he puts Microsoft Office's Entourage task lists to work for him: using categories.
With categories, Mann identifies the "How," "Where," and "When" of an item, like "mac-anywhere" for something that can be done on the computer not connected to the 'net, or "mac-desk" for items that require supplies at his desk.
As usual, Mann's method is a sensible and practical implementation of David Allen's Getting Things Done well-grounded in experience. Tasty food for thought for those of us tweaking our productivity strategies.
