Task Progress Tracker 2008 Updates

Project-level to-do list tracking

The Task Progress Tracker (or TPT) is a Project Task Manager, where "project" is loosely defined as a "set of related tasks". The idea behind the TPT is to provide a methodology to break down a project into shorter-duration subtasks that take under 4 hours. The design of the form encourages estimate then track use of the same piece of paper; first you write down all the tasks, then you make your estimates, then you follow through. It's like a To-Do list, except the forms also track effort made against each item, 15 minutes at a time.

The 2008 edition is just a yearly update, with a modification of the footer to remove my "custom design" service offering. It ended up being very difficult to offer this at the price point most people were willing to pay, so I think a software solution will have to be found. I have some ideas; hopefully I will be able to implement them in late 2008.

Destructo-matic version still says ‘2007’

:) Happy New Year

Hi Dave,
I really appreciate the resources I struggle with time management in a big way, especially juggling multiple projects.

The quote I recently read by Phillip Roth, The road to hell is paved with works in progress.

2007 felt a bit that way so 2008 hopefully will be better with your great resources.

Many thanks
Michael

how about an excel version?

David,
I LOVE the Destructomatic version. I use it frequently and I love the inventive way of thinking about my tasks at hand. The graphics on that are really neat too!
Keep up the great work.

This is a great form, especially for an academic like me who often works under loose self-imposed deadlines. Would it be possible to create a downloadable form along the lines of your emergent task timer? I’m printing out so many copies now that I’m sure my carbon footprint has ballooned even as I’ve become more efficient. Many thanks for your work!
