I am absolutely loving the simplicity of Momentum. Once installed, every time you open a new browser tab, the Momentum Chrome Extension shows you a beautiful screen such as the one below and tells you what time it is, greets you, asks you what your focus is, tells you the weather, and even has a little spot for … wait for it … to do items!!!!!! What are tabs of distraction you ask? Tabs like Facebook, Twitter, some Buzzfeed quiz I feel like I have to take today, the occasional online shopping site, and some design blogs.īut recently, I’ve been using a new Chrome Extension called Momentum which has helped keep the “tabs of distraction” to a minimum. Of course, sometimes tabs of distraction sneak in. Going from left to right, I keep things organized left to right including: things I’m going to consume (articles / videos, etc), things I need to do (Freshbooks, Google Analytics), things I’m researching or doing (client stuff, design resources, etc). In all honestly, my 23 tabs are very, very organized.
And besides, I’ve read that it’s a characteristic of many highly creative people. In any case, I call this controlled choas. Yes, I know.īut please don’t judge me (I didn’t get as much reading down this weekend as I had hoped to). At this moment, I have 23 browser tabs open. Why do I wish this existed? Well, because I think I would be more focused and waste less time if I could see my calendar and to do items all in one place. If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you know that I really wish that there was a calendar that also integrated to do items.
