Earlier in the week we opened up the email drop box concept for public beta.  What this means is that you can now interact with your WORKetc account, simply by sending an email. 

For example, if you are out and about and think of an important task, simply fire up your smartphone and send WORKetc an email.  WORKetc will receive that email, understand your request and go ahead and create the To-Do.

Some scenarios available in this pre-release:
  • Create a To-Do for yourself and others
  • Create a new event or meeting in the calendar, for multiple people
  • Record an expense
  • Create and invite people to participate in a new project
After we have a few weeks feedback on the drop box, we’ll be adding in the following scenarios:
  • Create a new contact via email
  • Create and update a sales lead via email
  • Attach emails and documents to contacts via email
  • Any other cool concept that are suggested.
Read more on how to get using the drop box.  And as usual  – please post any feedback on that forum

This is going to be a massive productivity improvement for everyone (me included!)
