Welcome!

Hi,

My name is Melissa MacBeth and I design features for Microsoft Office Outlook. Specifically, I have been working on the task and time management features for the next version – Outlook 12, which has recently been released for Beta testing. For those of you interested in time management, there are a lot of new features that you will find especially useful including the To-Do Bar, the new time based flagging system, pervasive color categories, an updated Calendar with tasks, and the integration of tasks and flagged mail. More on those to come…

With this blog I hope to accomplish two things:

1. Provide some insight into how we came up with the Outlook 12 time management system

2. Provide suggestions on how to use the system; show users how to make it work.

See more posts coming soon!
