#Calendar org. I do a few things to organize my calendar and its reminders. A brief thread. First, I prepend every *recurring* event’s title with its frequency: [daily] [weekly] [monthly] [quarterly] [yearly]Permalink On twitter.com

Then I work with indicators for other schedules, like [3daily]—for events taking place every three days, or [daily2]—for events taking place twice a dayPermalink On twitter.com

If something relates only to work days, I work with [wdaily] Also, for reminders, I found it beneficial to work with “moving” reminders which I prefix with [moving]Permalink On twitter.com

Then, while I try to limit my use of holds (I know how important it is to be available to others, especially my team), if I use one I found a “traffic light” system to be pretty clear for both myself and colleagues: [🟢 (Name of hold)] [🟡 (Name of hold)] [🔴 (Name of hold)]On twitter.com

One can argue that this is all addressing #UX problems that should really be solved by calendars—yet they may not be easy problems to solve (do users care about frequency? do they all want dots for status indication?). These, simply put, work for me. What works well for you?Permalink On twitter.com
