michael.salerno	Posted Aug 08, 2010 in: tags for projects Score: 0 michael.salerno Posted: Aug 08, 2010 Score: 0 This is how I use Stars and Tags (to avoid complex tagging) . I use Stars only for items I want to accomplish TODAY. In my iPhone app, I can view them all quickly with the Star view. I use Tags only as an "Action Tag" meaning I identify the next action I need to take (ultimately the only thing I really care about). I keep it real simple here - the tag is either "Next Action" or "Waiting", which means I must do the next task OR I follow-up with someone who I am waiting to get something done so I can complete my project/deliverable. Given I may not work on every project everyday, or won't be bugging someone everyday, I use Stars for what I need to complete TODAY. SUMMARY: I do not sort, but rather Filter Tags for displaying what action I need to focus on next. Then I start marking what will be done today with Stars. Displaying Stars (visual indicator) is all I need for a quick daily check (and I set the Star list as my Application Badge on the iPhone). Hope this helps. Cheers, Michael
