Did you know you can use the Task List to create user tasks?  What are user tasks?  They are a checklist of "to do" items that are stored in the .suo file.  This means they are per-user settings and are not typically checked into source control. 

 

To begin, make sure that "User Tasks" is selected from the drop down list in the Task List then click on the "Create User Task" button:

Now you can enter any task you want:

You can easily edit any task by DOUBLE CLICKING or pressing ENTER while in it.  Also, you can also set priority levels on them by clicking in the box to the far left of any task:

Naturally, you can sort them by any column like Description or Priority:

When you are done with a task you can just click the checkbox to mark it complete:

Or you can RIGHT CLICK the task and delete it:

    Can you also link it to a part of you're code?

    Hey Pieter :) Unfortunately no. It has very limited functionality and I suspect will be deprecated down the road at some point. I had always hoped they would link it to outlook or do more with it. Z
