My Reviews

Google Calendar Tab

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I'm giving it 5 stars because it works perfect for Google Calendar...

... but it doesn't support tasks which should be a whole lot simpler than Google Calendar.

NickF got this working for GQueues, a far more complicated task application, and Facebook, etc.

It SHOULD be possible to work with Google Tasks.

Can you please figure out why it doesn't work for GTasks and update it?

If so, it would be the killer extension and would utterly replace Lightning, Provider, etc.

Archive This

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Beautiful Extension

I Use Gina Trapiani of Lifehacker.com's idea of very few folders, and just search or sort for when you need to find something.

This has been a killer concept in practice. Thunderbird search is so effective I find whatever I want faster this way than trying to remember what folder it's in.

Other than my Inbox, I use:

Action
~Hold
~Archive

Note: The "tildes" (~) are just to keep everything in the same order I keep my desktop trays, My Documents organisation, and even my Firefox bookmarks.

With the *fantastic Archive This*, I set my own personal keywords for several folders, and then I can bounce emails back and forth.

I just use a SINGLE letter with no "ALT" for each of my keyboard shortcuts. It makes everything lightning fast.

These are the 6 shortcuts I use:

- A = Action
- H = Hold
- V = archiVe
- D = Deleted
- I = Inbox
- E = sEnt

I chose these letters as shortcuts because some others conflict with Thunderbird's built-in email navigation shortcuts.

These don't: This will save you time and wrist strain.

Cheers,
