No Tengo Enie Puts Those Hard-to-Type Special Characters One Click Away [Time Savers]

Typing special characters is way harder than it needs to be. especially if you haven't memorized the absurd key codes for the symbol you need to type. No Tengo Enie is a simple web page that, with one click, puts a special character on your clipboard for easy typing.

Of course, if you find that you need to type certain symbols often, we'd recommend putting them in your text expansion program of choice, but when you just need a random character and you don't want to search around for its key code, just pull up No Tengo Enie. You can click on the symbol you need, head back to your document, press Ctrl+V, and keep on typing.

Create a Separate "10 Minute Tasks" List for Those Little Things That Need to Get Done [To Do Lists]

We talk a lot about honing the perfect to do list here at Lifehacker, but Redditor Phospholipids reminds us that sometimes, a second to do list—with those little things you can get done in between tasks—is a great way to get things done.

Phospholipids explains in further detail:

In your to dos, create a category called '10 min' tasks. It has helped me gotten small stuffs done much more efficiently, for those small tasks that you remember at random times of the day, but can never remember when you get home (such as to cut your nails, or to clear up your desk). Those tasks that take maximum of 10 minutes.

I had never made a "formal" 10 minute list, but always ended up making one on a scratch piece of paper, or as a note in Simplenote—just because I wanted to keep it separate from my real to-do list. After formalizing it and making a separate to-do list next to my main one, it's been a big help in keeping these little tasks under control.
