If you use IBM Verse you know what a great productivity platform it is. If you have not tried it, or if you are already a user, here are some useful tips on how to increase your efficiency and make the most out of the IBM Verse.<\/span><\/p>\n

Turn an email into an action<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Turning an email into an action helps you keep your day better organized. Here is the magic button that gets things done: <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Verse_Email_to_action\"<\/p>\n

Next, select the due date, add some notes and you are good to go. This way, when you get an e-mail that needs some extra attention later, you can make sure you have things neatly organized, and that things don\u2019t slip through the cracks later.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your notes, and the action icon, will show up in your mail list:<\/p>\n

\"Verse_Email_to_action2\"<\/p>\n

When you\u2019ve finished with it, just press this icon to mark the action as done. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Verse_Email_to_action3\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Keep all the emails that need a reply together<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you receive tons of emails every day, you might find it difficult to make sure you have replied to everybody. Distractions are everywhere, so a bit of help might come in handy. Here is how you can list all the emails that need a reply: <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Verse_Email_List\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Keep all the important people close<\/h3>\n

Make sure the people you work closely are just a click away: <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Verse_Important_People\"<\/p>\n

If the list Verse comes up with is not exactly what you want, or if you want somebody added there, just click on this little icon and add somebody there: <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Verse_Add_Important_People\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Organize your emails<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

One other thing people use a lot when trying to stay organized, are folders. If you use them, then the search is one tool that comes in handy. Also, being able to just drag and drop stuff around in the email window, might be useful. <\/span><\/p>\n

You can, for instance, use drag and drop to move people between To, Cc or Bcc:<\/p>\n

\"Verse_Drag_and_Drop\"<\/p>\n

Search for an email address or contact in the search field:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Verse_Search_For_People\"<\/p>\n
