Google Tasks for Chrome Description
A possible problem with most task managers is that in their goal of handling as many types of assignments you may throw at them, they usually end up being so complex that you may literally be better off just writing a sticky note and physically sticking it to your computer’s screen.
One of the simplest ways to keep track and manage your tasks, directly within Chrome’s main window
That said, if you’re on the look-out for a run-of-the-mill task manager for your day-to-day duties and events, then know that Google’s offering just that in the form of a Chrome extension.
Dubbed Google Tasks for Chrome, this tiny extension allows you to add tasks and mark them as complete, directly and conveniently from Chrome’s toolbar. If you feel like that’s actually way too simplistic, then fret not, since this unassuming piece of software has a few extra bits and bobs, as well.
Not exactly feature-rich, but packs everything the average user needs
For example, from the Actions menu, you can view or delete all the completed tasks, sort them by their due date, as well as print your whole list of to-dos. To make things even better, please note that you can add new lists, as well as rename already existing ones.
But the cherry on the cake is the fact that Google Tasks for Chrome also integrates with your favorite browser’s contextual menu. Picture the following scenario: you’ve just received a work-related email with various tasks. Of course, as a responsible and efficient employee that you are, you will prioritize. You can do this by just highlighting the text, by right-clicking it and by selecting “Create Task for …” option which will add the text as a new task in your list.
Google-vetted task manager for Chrome
Taking everything into account, it may be simple, possibly even too simple for some, but if Google Chrome is your browser of choice and you’re looking for a simple alternative to the almost-too-generic virtual sticky notes, then Google Tasks for Chrome is well worth checking out.
