The SpringPad Makes Organization Easy

If you are anything like me, you have tried a whole slew of online organizers and have subsequently let them fall by the wayside opting instead to use pen and paper for your organizational needs. As much time as I spend online, from blogging to social networking, you'd think I'd be able to catch onto online organizing like a pro, but that's just not the case. In fact, I have resisted e-organizers at all costs. I do, however, believe I've been sold on one that takes organizing to another level: the SpringPad, a free online organizational tool that is by far the best of its kind I've ever seen or used.

After getting an eye-opening tour of the SpringPad by Spring Partners CEO Jeff Janer and using the SpringPad myself I can personally give it a resounding thumbs-up, especially for busy moms and bloggers like me who need tight organization to make it through the day with all important tasks completed.

Creating to-do lists and daily tasks -- the most essential for me -- is extremely easy to do, and once you have created them, the SpringPad automatically populates the tasks into a calendar that you can either print or refer to online. Additionally, you can schedule email reminders so you will remember the tasks you so diligently put in your calendar. One of the most useful tools you can use, though, is the SpringPad share tool. This is how it works:
  • I have set a task I want to share with you. It's set for Tuesday, December, 23, 2008 and says Visit TheMomSalon.com. All you have to do is click the Spring It! link below and it will automatically load into any list you designate so you'll remember to visit TheMomSalon.com tomorrow. Sign up for your SpringPad and give it a whirl.

The SpringPad also has several lists (called springpads) already created that help make your life easier such as a weekly meal planner, a christmas card log, babysitter handbook, and medical tracker among many, many more springpads. With everything the SpringPad offers, it is a great way to get organized in the new year. Plus, it's free, and I love anything that's free!
