Productivity Software Comparison - Zirrus And Remember The Milk

2 popular personal productivity software programs which are FREE and online (see web 3.0) are:

  1. Zirrus
  2. Remember The Milk

Which is better? Which do I use and recommend?

Both use the principles of Getting Things Done (GTD), but one is extremely simple, and the other is more 'advanced'.

If you have read my free report on how to have a natural time management system, then you know I'm not a fan of 'advanced' personal productivity software.

Why? Because they usually do not work.  Whether through laziness, distraction, or complication, they just end up not being used.

Zirrus on the other hand is really really simple.  If you are just starting out with daily tak management and personal productivity software tools, then I highly recommend you start with Zirrus.

Once you are up and running with it, using it regularly to keep track of one-off tasks that you ned to do, or using it as a placeholder for the key word of a bigger project you need to work on, then and only then would I suggest you take a look at Remember The Milk.

Remember The Milk can be used quite simply, which is good.  But it can easily lead you into the same traps of bad time management systems such as prioritizing tasks and scheduling tasks to time such as using a weekly to do list.

Again, get my free report on natural time management systems to find out the real breakthroughs that hav been made in unleashing your time management skill.

Only once you have the understanding given in that report, will you be able to cross the mindfield in Remember The Milk to use it wisely for good time management and personal productivity.

I love the evolution of Web 3.0 Productivity tools.  Ya just gotta keep you're guard up, because the same old mistakes can still be made even with fancy new software.
