Symbian s60v5 + time management

    Time management issues are very popular these days, and yet everyone has their own attitude to this. Not so long ago, with this purpose in mind, I chose a device that I would be comfortable with and who could support me in this regard (of course, it was required not only that: the price and other functions were taken into account) throughout the day. The choice fell on the Nokia 5530 (which, surprisingly, I really did not see anything on the hub). I would like to consider several controversial and obscure points on managing your routine through this device.

    How am I going to plan my time and what do I need for this?


    Due to the tight schedule, I can’t paint my plans by the hour, thereby driving myself into the framework. Therefore, I need to have an approximate to-do list for every day, so that it is always in front of me and I have access to it both from the PC and from the phone (that is, all the information was stored not on the media, but on the network), but I also wanted to to receive reminders of some things / activities. Of course, this should not be confusing for everyone and everything should be extremely simple and convenient. Therefore, I refused the usual built-in calendar right away.

    Services through which we “manage time”


    At the moment, there are many most convenient services that provide us with ToDo-lists, schedules, shopping lists and the like.
    • Did you do it all?
    • Google calendar
      ( Google Tasks could also be included here , but I don’t know about their work together)
    • Evernote
    • Remember the Milk
    • Twitter
      (in its way also represents a “todo-list”)

    Probably, the most important service from this list will be All-Made? because to some extent, it connects all the others with each other: just call the number and say where exactly you need to add the note (Evernote, RTM, Twitter), or use the tud list that the service itself provides. Recording is certainly convenient, but there is no to-do list before my eyes and I can only edit it when I have a PC at my disposal. However, a certain reminder system is present: e-mail (requires constant connection of the box on the phone, which drains the battery and traffic) or SMS (I didn’t go into details, but it seems like a paid account is required). Of course, there is no question of a client on Symbian s60v5.

    Google calendarIt guarantees us complete control over time and in combination with the usual calendar from Nokia seems to be friends, only the moments with synchronization specifically on my phone are not clear to me personally, and so there is an article about it - Nokia 5800 (and others on Symbian 9.x ) - Sync your calendar and contacts with Google Calendar and Gmail .
    The question arises whether to attribute Google Tasks here , and if so, what to do next?
    However, this option still creates a small mess in business (IMHO).

    For Evernote is no customer at Simba in general, but there is a mobile version, which is slightly uncomfortable. You can send notes either via mail (this is a plus), can I do it with the help of All-In-One?, but viewing all this is extremely inconvenient (only through a browser or using a PC) and there is no reminder function, although for large notes it is most likely an irreplaceable little thing.

    I came across Remember the Milk not so long ago, so it's hard to say what's what. It is only clear that the todo-list here wins in comparison with other services, but there is no client, moments with reminders and synchronization are unclear. I didn’t perform such a test of the service, and I didn’t really use it. Is there support from all-in-one? (but in my opinion requires a paid account). Little can be said

    about Twitter , as his mission is still different, although you can keep small notes and puzzles for yourself there (there are no questions with clients).

    Total


    I do not see the best option at the moment. The problem is that, as such, clients for Symbian (and besides s60v5) are not released, and the services themselves have disadvantages (more precisely, they do not have the advantages of neighboring services).

    I look forward to suggestions and additions on this issue in order to come to the best solution.
