Task Reminders

In Things, use the hard date (Schedule date) like a reminder for must-do tasks, because you will see those tasks in your daily review.

Creating Tasks from Email

You can turn emails into tasks by forwarding them to Things. This also works for collecting brand new tasks. This means that anywhere you have email access, you can collect, triage, or process.
