GeeTeeDee Portable

Although a mere concept that guides us through our existence, time is one of the most valuable resources we all equally have. A careful management can incredibly boost efficiency in every domain of activity. Applications like GeeTeeDee Portable give you the possibility to do this by simply creating tasks and strike them down when done.

As the name cleverly states, this is the edition of GeeTeeDee you can directly place on an USB flash drive so you can check your tasks from other computers as well. This isn’t the only advantage of portability, but the computer you run it on remains clean, since it doesn’t rely on system registries to function.

Aesthetics are yet another advantage. Placed in a classic window frame, all features are presented in pleasant colors, smooth animations, and high-quality details even for small buttons. While not used, it goes down to the system tray, so you don’t have to reserve any desktop or taskbar space. However, it could have done with at least a hotkey command to bring up the main window from the tray area.

A side panel serves as the place where folders are created so you can organize all your tasks a little better. There’s the default inbox with several presets, but you’re free to add many more, with the possibility to pick from several different, high-quality icons for easy identification. More default folders let you go through completed tasks, as well as deleted ones.

Pressing the Compact button slides the edit and preview area over the navigation panel for even more space. Creating a task is pretty easy, only requiring you to provide a name, optional notes. You can set a due date by selecting a day from the cool calendar that pops up when enabling this option.

You’re not alerted of this due date, so you need to frequently check on your tasks. When a task is finished, you just need to tick it off the list, automatically being striked out with a line. If a folder is only fitted with finished tasks, you can press the Cleanup button to remove everything from the list.

On an ending note, GeeTeeDee Portable might not provide much flexibility when it comes to the set of features, with no options to attach files or set up notifications. However, the overall design, simplicity, and portability are more than enough to provide a simple, fast, and efficient method of organizing your time, to get one step closer to success.
