To Do: Blog

Image via WikipediaI love Google Calendar. The Tasks list -- which is also connected to Gmail -- allows me to keep track of what I need to do at work, at home, any time I'm near a computer, and, of course, when I'm blogging.

Whenever I come up with an idea for a blog post, I break that idea down into basic parts, then add each part to my to-do list on Google Calendar. Then, I just pull the next task in, write it up, and if I finish a post ahead of time, awesome: I just pre-schedule it for another day.

I've never been ahead of myself like this before. It's pretty sweet!

What do you do to keep on top of your game with blogging or other writing?
