I use Google Apps for all of the email tasks for i am jack’s design. GMail has a simple feature that lets you “Star” a message and have it placed in a special Star-only folder. This turns out to be a very simple way to organize your tasks from clients.

I’ve tried using web apps for task management like Ta-da List and Remember The Milk but in the end I always come back to the simplest solution: GMail. It’s much easier to just star an email containing a client request than it is to open up a separate site/program to write down what you need to get done.

If you’re running GMail and looking for a way to stay organized give the “Star” feature a try.
