My team shares a lot of interesting resources throughout the day - articles, podcasts etc., and here are my possible outcomes: -
🟢 I read as soon as I see the link,
🟠 I open the link and purpose to read it later,
🔴 The tab remains open forever and I lose it eventually
With the #CopilotApp, I have an automation that runs daily, pulls links from my captured inbox - marked as tasks and opens them in a separate window
No more time spent manually looking for articles I meant to read, and I'm always up to date
What automations are you running?
