Trello is a useful and powerful tool for many things including tracking and organisation of tasks.
The coloured bars are labels – which can be used to easily denote a service or other association between cards.
The little bubble indicated the number of comments on the card – these are a nice way of adding notes to a task.
It is also possible to add members to a task, associating the task with a particular person, to add attachments and a due date; which can be a useful way of sticking to a deadline or just organising your time.
There is also much more that Trello can do and it would be advisable to visit their website, they even have a dedicated inspiration section.
1 list of tasks that need to be done.
1 for tasks in progress.
1 for tasks that have been completed (this will be periodically archived).
I have boards to keep track of my personal to-dos, work to-dos, DIY planning, keeping track of blog ideas and tattoo ideas.
If you’d like to try Trello then it’s free so please enjoy.
I have been a huge fan of Trello for years, so thanks for this excellent post about it. I think what I like about it the best is that it can be used for everything from very simple personal projects, to complex projects with others. I like how some folks use it as an online roadmap for voting up product features and I personally love the power-up features for Slack, Evernote, Google Docs and others.
