Trello: Productivity & List Making At Its Best!

Trello 101 | Getting Started with Trello

One of my biggest OCD tendencies is list making.  Yes, that's right... creating never ending lists of all the things that I have to do.  Does it make me accomplish them any better or even get them all done?  Maybe not, but it does put everything from my head on paper and is a visual reminder.

Trello is an online resource that helps me do this digitally.  There is also a convenient app that allows me to view and, most importantly, check off items on my list while on the go.

Let's talk "Boards", "Lists", and "Cards".
A. Through this platform, you can create different boards for the different aspects of your life (work, home, weekend, lesson plan, data, etc).
B. Your can divide up into whatever categories lists you'd like (To Do, In Progress, Done, Later, etc).  C. In these lists categories, you create cards for each "to do" item.  You can even dive deeper and write out specifics for each item on your cards.  Cards can be dragged between lists, edited, or deleted.
D. The Menu area serves as the Mission Control center for your entire board.  Change the look of the board, invite collaborators, and 

One of the greatest features is the collaborative piece to Trello.  Whether it's co-workers, a spouse, or friends, Trello boards give everyone a shared perspective.  Comments and mentions, due dates, website links, notes, photos/graphs, and data can be added to each individual card as things are being worked on.  Personally I feel like this is a great tool to eliminate an overload of emails and meetings.

Check it out and let me know what you think.  So far, I am digging it!
