If you are using a Gmail personal account regularly, the best is to set up a Google Chrome Profile. Make sure you download Google Chrome and keep it up to date.
Google Calendar and Google Tasks are some of the best time management and planning tools you have. You can create separate calendars and organize tasks sets.
In Google Tasks, you can create to-do lists and allocate time to do them. As you create calendar events to organize your schedule, you can add Video Conferencing to your meetings, invite guests, type notes and add documents.
Google Keep is your quick annotation tool. You can take notes and share them with others to collaborate.
We recommend downloading the mobile version of Google Calendar and Google Tasks.

In the past, people had to install these tools separately on their computers. Today they are available in the Google Apps cloud, which means you can use your files anywhere. The work you create is linked with your gapps account and not to your device.
