20 Ways to Use Gmail Filters - Stepcase Lifehack

  • Booleans. The filter works much like Gmail’s search function, in that you can add search terms such as AND or OR or NOT. So I can look for addresses that are from a number of people (using OR), or emails that must include all of the words on a list (using AND). Use search operator symbols to make it even easier: “|” for OR, space for AND, “-” for NOT, and parentheses to group different terms in your search string.

A Pattern Language for Productivity, Pattern #10: Context Lists

  • My contexts are:


    @Home

    @Office

    @Errands

    @Waiting - Home

    @Waiting - Office


    I keep them in a single Excel sheet with four columns:


    Task | Project | Context | Done (date/blank)


    Not glamorous, but lightning fast to use with Excel’s built-in autocomplete and filtering, and it keeps a chronological record per project with almost zero effort. Great for reviewing.
