I have been attempting to create a todo tracker for myself, but my problem have been finding a suitable interface. Currently i combine vimwikis diary function and taskwiki to integrate todo filtering and have taskwarrior as the backend. The way it works is that i have a template with a list of viewports from taskwiki. These gets initialized everyday and clears out any done todos. I can still retrieve todos, and i can see the history and context when todos was done when visiting old diaries generated by vimwiki. I hope this solves my problem of remembering todos, i have yet to notice any difference.

Here’s a todo app idea: 1. Take a standard notebook and a regular pen (or pencil, if you prefer). 2. Write down things you have to do. You can even organize them by date: 3. Actually do the things instead of yak-shaving solutions to making basic lists. 4. Cross each thing off after you do it.

  You sir are doing God's work. Actually get things done instead of making fake work under the pretense of being busy - more people could do well by following this principle.

  > 1. Take a standard notebook and a regular pen (or pencil, if you prefer). Good call. But... I mean... if I'm gonna have these with me all the time I'd better make sure they're good ones. You know, durable, pleasant to use. burns 400 hours researching and buying notebooks and pens, never gets around to actually using them. > 2. Write down things you have to do. You can even organize them by date Sweet. But you know, I bet this could be more efficient if I color-coded. I wonder if I could mix a calendar in, too? What about things that aren't exactly things to do, but I want to record? What about appointments? Hm, I wonder if someone else has figure this out. wastes 400 hours looking at instagrams of other people's bullet journals, never actually bullet journals for more than a day or two > 3. Actually do the things instead of yak-shaving solutions to making basic lists. Oh man, I'm on it, I've been so productive! Crossing off researching-task-management-tools tasks all day long!
