I’m confused why email to yourself? Is this a practice from somewhere I need to be aware of?

- juliendorra 4y agoMany people (used?) to do that as reminders. It was a cross device solution too when there’s was not that many simple, instant ways to share todos between devices. So, an habit inherited from a time before app/web apps that sync and are in constant connection.
- cookie_monsta 4y agoSure, I still do that, just for quick reminders and sometimes to move files from my phone to desktop if I don't have a cable handy. I know there's all sorts of reminder/ notes apps available, but why sign up for yet another account when email does the job?
- lawgimenez 4y agoThis makes sense. Thanks I think I should look into this habit closely.
- bhupy 4y agoMy wife keeps an ongoing email draft to herself with her to-do lists; she’s been doing it for the last 10+ years. She’s aware that there are now better solutions for this, but it’s a force of habit and it works pretty well for her.
