Every time when I have an idea for a new project - I send an email to myself, so I don't forget it. This repository describes a quick life hack that I recently learned.

GMail will deliver mail addressed to "yourself+tag@gmail.com" as though it was addressed to "[email protected]". Every time when you have a new idea, you can just email it to [email protected].

If you also set up GMail filters, you can mark these emails as "read" and apply labels to them:

It depends on your phone. iPhone, unfortunately, does not let you to "pin" a single email to the home screen. So I made a website, that has just one button. When clicked - it opens your email client.

You can design the name of the button and email address. The website gives you a link that can be added to home screen

Note: The website does not track you and never sends your email anywhere. In fact, it uses a hash tag to store your email address. Hash tags are not sent to the server, so even GitHub will not know your email from bookmarked URL.

1. Open an email, and select "Filter messages like this"
2. Follow throught the screen to create a filter. Click on "Create filter with this search"
3. Select label that you want to apply

I hope you like this small tip. I wish you all to be productive, creative, and happy!
