  • Office 2007 allows you to paste unformatted text

    Using Word as your e-mail editor in Outlook 2003 is nearly impossible... it's just SOOOO much slower. Of course, in Outlook 2007 you don't have a choice, but it's much faster than in the past. One of the best new features though - something which may exist now, but I certainly can't find it - is the...

  • Office 2007 Themes

    I really like the new Office 2007 themes introduced in Beta 1 Technical Refresh compared to previous versions using the temporary gray skin. It took me awhile to find where to change the theme in Outlook - it's under Editor Options. The theme looks a little different in Outlook, though it's possible...

  • Back to Windows Desktop Search

    I've gone back and forth in the past between MSN Desktop Search and Copernic. One of the reasons I ended up sticking with MSN was the shortcut keys . Ever since I discovered ActiveWords , though, this hasn't been as important and I found myself once again gravitating towards the cleaner Copernic interface...

  • Outlook Tip: Show incomplete tasks and tasks completed today

    If you're a heavy user of Outlook tasks, you're probably filtering incomplete tasks in the current view. Unfortunately, this also means that as soon as you mark a task complete, it disappears. If you decide later in the day that it wasn't actually done, you have to go dig through all of your previous...

  • The Inkosphere is buzzing about TEO3

    I used the term Inkosphere recently and even though I'm sure I heard it somewhere it's never been used before - or since - at least according to Google. Until now .

  • Implementing GTD in Outlook 2003

    I've discussed how I use Outlook search folders at length and, more recently, alluded to my use of how I combine this with colored flags and views to manage my e-mail and RSS subscriptions. What might not have been obvious, however, is that I use this system to implement GTD. I've been following the...
