Tasks
Been working with it -- add email as task, archive it out of the inbox, take care of it via task completion.
Task annoyances: done tasks stay on the list -- which is good up to a point. But I’d like to remove them to a “done” list. Guess I’ll just have to create such a thing.
Also, ceasing editing of a task is not intuitive -- “back to list”. And creating a new task? If you hit ENTER you get a new task... aaargh.
Calendar
Hrm. just started using this. via gmail, anyway. I had used it in the waaaaaay past. two years ago?
Using it better

advanced filters
Gmail filters and boolean operators
Use alternate sent-from address to help sort replies
gmail >> Settings >> accounts and import >> Send mail as >> send mail from another address
Set it up with the plus-tag -- eg, xraysmalevich
+freelance
@gmail.com
This means that replies can be easily filtered based on your target address, not their source address.
