Beat the Monday blues with Korgi

It's Monday, all — how did you feel when you first turned on your computer or looked at your phone today?

A) stressed/anxious

B) tired/resigned

C) excited/motivated

If it's A or B, take a moment now to reset. Here's how:

A) means you might have started today in response to other people. Maybe you opened emails and texts and started replying, or you ran into someone and pivoted to their last-minute request. Take 30 seconds now to write down something you could do today that would give you a sense of purpose and accomplishment. Now schedule one step towards that, and enjoy the feeling of anticipation about getting to do it.

B) means you might be experience a disconnect between your current work or role and how you want to show up in and contribute to the world. Take a few minutes to think about what gives you a sense of meaning in the day. Maybe that's mentoring, or solving problems, or creating beauty. Reflect on what you're planning to do today, and find one way to infuse that meaning into one of those to-dos.

And what about C?

C) means you might be using Korgi. We're on a mission to make it easy, fun and possible to turn your daily chaos into organized, joyful accomplishment. All from our beatiful, home base boards with AI, Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 apps built right in.

Here's how to make the most of a Korgi Monday:

Create a blank board (or open your existing board, if you already track tasks).
Make the first column "Accomplishment." Add 2-3 cards of accomplishments that motivate and inspire you. Then brainstorm and add mini-actions you could take today towards any of those. Who could you call? Add them as a contact to the card. What could you write? Create a Google Doc from the card. Finally, schedule a small block of time to take that card, and add it to your Google or Outlook Calendar straight from your card.
Create a second column called "Meaning." Add 2-3 cards of what gives meaning to your day. What makes you feel whole and at your best?
Create a third column called "To-Dos" or "Tasks." Just for today. Braindump all the items on your mind, add the ones on sticky notes and in notebooks. Now take a look at the meaning column. Where are the opportunities to add that personal layer to any of those tasks. Drag the meaning cards under the tasks they match up with.

Return to your day with more of "you" infused into it. Let us know how it goes, sincerely. There's a contact button on the bottom right of every board.

BREAKING: Korgi adds a checklist board view AND Google Contacts to cards!

Korgiville—We interrupt this programming with double headlines from the To Do Dogs themselves:

Boards now have a checklist view

Checklist cards feature checkboxes to immediately archive and unarchive completed items. They're also more compact to view more cards on your screen. You can still color-code, drag-and-drop, and, of course, use the mighty drawer to launch Google and Microsoft 365 apps straight from your board. Go to Board Settings/Board Type/Checklist to enable checklist view now - you're going to love it! (You can switch any checklist back to "Standard" view in Settings/Board Type, too.)

Call and email Google contacts from your cards

Project management includes calls and emails, so Korgi just added Google Contacts to the card drawer. This is a test feature, so you'll have to grant Korgi a new Google permission the first time you try it. (It's available in Sharing still, too!) In the drawer, select the Contact icon, search for your desired contact, then add them to your card. Select the card icon anytime to view their email (select it to open your default email client) and their phone number (select it if you're on mobile or have enabled web calls in your browser).

Now back to your regular programming.

Who are we kidding - go build some checklists and add some contacts to those cards!

Korgi Releases v1.4 and more, now with Google Contacts and folder control!

KORGIVILLE—Adding Google Contacts to cards on your boards just became a walk in the park, with the familiar blue People icon now appearing in the card "drawer." In one click, add Contacts to a card, then email or call them straight from your board. Korgi v1.4 also includes ongoing design and functionality updates, including:

Making all three magnifier options (zoom in, zoom out, reset) visible in the navigation bar on wider screens;
Adding a new explainer video to the Home page;

Korgi v1.4.2—April 3, 2024

Users now can replace the default Korgi board folder with a Google Drive folder of their choosing — good dog, Korgi!
All navigation menus now include an "Invite" button so users can directly invite their friends and colleagues to save time and have fun organizing their day with Korgi.

Today's local news is... you can upload local files!

KORGIVILLE—Korgi just released a new, tasty treat for users. Now you can attach files from your device to your board straight from the drawer!

Open the drawer on the card you want to attach a file to.
Select the Drive icon to add a file. You'll see a second option in the picker to "Upload."
Select your local file or drag it into the picker.
Korgi uploads the file to the board's Drive folder for you. As always, you'll see a new Drive icon on your card. Just select the icon to open the file in your browser.

Good dog, Korgi!

This just in... Korgi Releases v1.3 with MS365 integration!

KORGIVILLE—We're live at Korgi HQ with the very latest from the productivity pups! Korgi just announced that as of today...

Users can create and manage MS365 AND Google apps and files on the same board!

You have a personal account on one platform, but your work or client or project account and files all live on another. With Korgi 1.3, there's finally a single productivity tool that lets you log into both Microsoft AND Google at the same time! You can add a Word document AND a Google Doc, create a Power Point presentation AND a Slide deck, an Excel spreadheet AND a Google Sheet, Outlook AND Google Calendar events...and add and store files to the respective OneDrive or Google Drive folder for that account.

Users now can create and manage MS365 apps and files, together with Google apps and files, on the same board.

Korgi reports that they now are official Microsoft AI Cloud Partners. With this latest move, Korgi takes "easy" to a new level and "all-in-one" to the level after that! As ever, they've added light content and design updates, including making exporting to Google Docs even better with two tiers of bullet points.

Added: More Board Enhancements

Korgi users, your requests continue to flow to the boards, including:

After making changes to your cards from the drawer (color changes, sorting, etc.), clicking away from the card saves the changes. Selecting the checkmark still saves, too.
Exporting to Google Docs has updated bullet points for an even cleaner look.

We're heading in to join the 30-day celebration here at Korgi HQ! It's officially the end of Launch Month, so the early adopter discounts end today, but the quarterly and annual subscription prices still are incredibly low, and there still are options to get a deal. Good dog, Korgi!

Korgi Releases v1.2.2!

KORGIVILLE—Korgi is reporting light content updates to make sign up and subscriptions even easier. In related news of Korgi making everything easier, on your board, you now can save color changes just by closing the drawer or clicking away from your card.

Korgi Releases v1.2.1!

KORGIVILLE—We're learning from Korgi HQ that the infamous "Pop-Up Blocker" for new boards has been vanquished by Super Korgi. New boards immediately open in new tabs. Light content and design updates round out our report.

BREAKING: Korgi Releases v1.2.0 and the Korgi Clipper!

KORGIVILLE—The Korgi team has released a new version of their tab-defeating productivity and collaboration boards. We understand they've now integrated, for user testing, Google Contacts and access to your full Google Drive (no more manually permitting files if you don't want to!). PLUS, their dogged determination saw the Korgi Clipper Chrome extension approved and released to the Chrome Web Store.

Added: Google Contacts for Sharing

When you're ready to share your board, you now have the option to grant permissions to manage Google Contacts through Korgi. Then you can invite anyone on your Google Contacts list to collaborate on your board. Of course, you still can manually add users by email in the same Share screen:

Added: full Google Drive Access for Sharing and Rebuilding Boards

By default, when you create a Korgi account, you grant limited permissions to access and manage only specific files you select when you're using your Korgi boards. For sharing, that means granting access to every file on that board to every new user each time you add a new collaborator or you or another user adds a file directly to the board folder. To make collaboration even easier, you now have the option to grant Korgi full Google Drive permissions so you can access and manage any Drive file while you're using Korgi:

Full Drive file permissions also help Korgi rebuild your board list to check for boards that were shared directly through Google Drive, deleted directly from Google Drive, etc.

Install Now! Save Web Content to Any Board with the Easy Korgi Clipper Chrome Extension

Korgi accepts that sometimes...SOMETIMES...you have to leave your beautiful, all-in-one boards to fetch other people's content. But Internet research and email attachments don't have to crowd your screen with more open tabs and windows. Add Korgi Clipper to Chrome, and you can instantly capture any page title, bookmark link and even highlighted text and choose any board and column to send a new card to. Pro pup tip: highlight your Korgi AI results and use the Korgi Clipper to create new cards on any board.

IMPORTANT: If you're using Korgi in incognito mode, you have to enable adding Chrome Extensions before you can use Korgi Clipper.
