Enter Venture: Gmail’s Tasks complete me.. err, my work stream

  • dwhittemore · 11 months ago
    Hey Pat - while I love Gmail tasks' design and implementation, I don't like that I can't get it on my iphone. For non-job-related tasks, I do a lot of my task documenting and processing on the subway when I've got my iphone in my hand. It's also great to reference my tasks when I'm out and about or in a meeting. Any thoughts on Gmail Tasks' lack of a mobile version?

    Dave -- you're hitting on a great point; in fact, it's a point I originally had in my post but took out in some last minute editing. The thing I like about Tasks, for work, is that I can leave it with my work. Much like my notebook, I can keep work Tasks compartmentalized such that I only see them when I'm at the office (or anytime I fire up Gmail, which is essentially the same thing).

    I don't think Tasks works quite as well for my non-work related Tasks -- so far, I don't have a good solution for that other than my whiteboard.
