The "Star" list is then my to-do list, and once I've done something, I unstar it (very fast with keyboard shortcuts). This is really useful if you have a blackberry or other smart phone. When I see that the lawn needs mowing, I just reach into my pocket, fire off a quick email to myself with subject "mow lawn," and it will come up in the star list that I check every morning.
