As you may be aware I’m trying very hard to be ‘organised’ and ‘productive’. Today I encountered my first snag. It seems that just when you think you are sailing along on the river of Getting Things Done your Nokia N73 ‘smart’ phone decides that it doesn’t want to talk to your laptop anymore.
I spent HOURS reinstalling the software, removing and updating drivers and even rolling back to an earlier restore point. I gave up, went for dinner and when I came back I plugged my phone in and it synchronised. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
So, tomorrow I have a longer Task List because today was interrupted my technology. I’m using paper!!!
I just got a new laptop and I thought it wa time I got myself organised. On the old one I had everything installed and I could sync up with my phone and everything. I am now trying to get away with having hardly anything installed and using the web more with things like google docs and calendar. I now synchronize my calendar and address book between my sony ericsson phone, Google and Thunderbird via a web site called scheduleworld.com. It took a while toget everything right so that I didn’t get a lot of duplicates but it was worth it. It all happens according to a schedule on the phone and the PC and is totally transparent. Try it and let me know if you need any help.
