Using Outlook Notes
Outlook Notes can be a great way to manage miscellaneous lists.
 
Creating a Note in Outlook is easy. The Quick-Key method is CTRL-SHIFT-N. Then, type your note and close it by clicking the “X” in the upper right hand corner of the window.

When using Notes in Outlook, keep in mind that the first line of the note becomes the title. For example, if I want to create a note for books that I want to read, the first line of my note is “Books to Read”. Subsequent entries in that note are the names of the books I want to read.

Here's an example of some note categories:

  • Blog Ideas – Things I want to add to this blog someday
  • Books to Read
  • Dates – Important dates to remember - birthdays, anniversaries, etc.
  • Ideas – General brainstorming
  • Quotes – Motivational quotes or sayings
  • Project Ideas – Ideas for specific project or events

It doesn't take much time to create or maintain notes, but it's handy to have them all in one place when you need to jot a quick thought.
