Hello,

It's great to see your interest in enhancing your productivity working on your desktop computers! Here are some of my favorite tools:

1. Todoist: This is a robust to-do list application that allows you to schedule tasks and deadlines, assign tasks to others, and even categorize tasks with labels and filters. It also integrates well with a variety of other apps.

2. Evernote: A fantastic note-taking tool that's great for storing and organizing information. You can create notebooks for different topics, tag individual notes, and even attach files or voice memos.

3. Slack: If you often find yourself communicating with team members or clients throughout the day, Slack is an amazing communication tool that keeps everything organized and searchable.

4. Trello: This is a project management tool that utilizes the Kanban system. You can set up several lists (like "To Do", "Doing" and "Done") and move tasks between them as they progress.

5. RescueTime: This tool tracks the time you spend on applications and websites, providing you an accurate picture of your day. It's an essential tool for understanding how you work and where your time goes.

6. Zapier: Essentially an automation tool. You can create 'Zaps' which are workflows that connect your apps and automate repetitive tasks.

Of course, the best tools for you will depend on your specific needs, workflow, and the nature of your work. These are just some suggestions, and I've found a lot of value in each of them. I hope this helps and I'm excited to see what other tools the community can recommend!
