Have you ever had an e-mail that you are going to need in the future but do not want it to clog up your in-box until you do need it? Well, I have an answer for you that I have started to use over the last couple of months. It is called nudge mail. Here is how it works. Let's say that you get an invite to a birthday party on September 27th. You do not really need that information right now but don't want to archive it and want it out of your inbox (I know most would just put it in your calendar and be done with it....but this is an example!) The quickest thing I can do is nudgemail it to myself at a later date. So, I would forward the e-mail to nudgemail.com by putting this in the to box.......sept25@nudgemail.com. This means that on September 25 I will receive a reminder e-mail about the birthday party on the 27th. After you send the e-mail nudgemail will send you a reminder e-mail as notification that they received it. Now you can forget about that invite until it pops back into your mail box on the requested date. This is very reliable and saves me a lot of time regarding things that I do not need until a later date. Try this out by choosing an e-mail, forward it to nudgemail for the next day and see what happens.
