Creating smart lists in Remeber the milk

Recently I started using a fablous TO-DO manager called Remember The Milk (http://rememberthemilk.com) and was stuck at how to create a list which has tasks as per my
criteria.

There are various criteria attributes in RTM like by list, due date, complete/uncompleted status, tag, location, priority etc.

So, to create a smart list what you need to do is to first enter your requirement as a search criteria in the search box. For example say you want to create all the task in list "work" which were completed in last one week then you need to search: completedWithin:"one week of today" and list:"work"

As soon as you do that your will see an option to save it as a smart list. That's it. There is no option to create a smart list from the settings --> lists section.

Facbook scams

Yesterday I got a message from one of my contact as

"My friend needs help:
You need to accept PayPal to your account and send them by Western Union.
Good and quick commission: 10-12%!
Who can help please contact by ICQ 556015894"

Please be aware it is a scam. The solution seems to change your password if it happens from your account.

Getting serious about your meeting problem

Seth posted a great article to make meetings more effective, especially time saving.
I loved his tips. The most lovely one is: "Don't keep chairs in the meeting room"...

I Think of India

When I think of India, I think of you
You target masses and I can't even a few
You know how to plan, I know how to cry in vain
You know how to celebrate
but I just know how to salute on a republic parade
You have the agenda and I just have a view
When I think of India, I think of You.

I can't differentiate red from red
To convince myself I need a medical explanation
You are much advance, all you need to know is my religion
I promised to take a revenge
and for centuries the status is due
When I think of India, I think of You.

when it comes to decision, When it comes to execution
You know a simple, effective and straight forward solution
You 'The Power' call it bullet
and me the idiot think of ballet.
You know that it's never gonna change here
And I admit, this is 100% true
When I think of India, I think of you.

I feel ignited when I switch on my television
I am full of emotions when I sign up an online petition
These lines are just a reflection
I will blog this and ask for a suggestion
Someone's will gonna reply "Oh it's profound"
Yes that is the name people use to give to a wound
Red, Red and Red that is how they define tbe hue
When I think of India, I just think of You...
