Free Online Sites and Apps for Organizing Home Life and Business

I don't know about you, but my goal in life has always been to get better organized in my home and life. I'm also getting older so I don't always remember things I need to do. What's a gal to do! I'm always on the look out for tools to help keep me organized and below I've found some interesting online tools that make organizing your home, life and business a lot easier.

Trello is an online tool that helps you organize, plan, and gather everything you need for a project in one handy place. From recording your next dentist's appointment to DIY projects and more, Trello makes it easy. It originally was set up as a business tool where groups of people could gather to work collectively on a project. It soon became a handy online 'To Do' list for individuals and families.

Trello is a visual tool that organizes all your projects onto boards, and quickly tells you in one glance what projects you are working on, what's in progress, what needs yet to be done, and what's finished. Keep track of your kid's activities, grocery lists, anniversary's and birthday's coming up...the uses are endless.

EVERNOTE is a software program that allows you to keep a record of just about everything. I've yet to try this one, but my friend Julie has been using it for years and swears by it. It's used for note taking and archiving. It can be used almost like a sticky note. It keeps all your 'notes' in one handy place. A note can be a photograph, a full webpage or excerpt, formatted text, a voice memo or a handwritten ink note. You can sort your notes into folders, tag them, edit, export and more.
