I’m a writer working at home, so @computer, @phone, @home never really worked for me. Instead, I’ve matched my contexts to the way I structure my workday. The morning, from 8am - noon is for writing and editing. The afternoon, from 1 - 5 is for research, reading, email, website maintenance, etc. The evening is for entertainment and housework.

So on my @morning list, I have: - Stories I can start drafting - Drafts that need editing

My @afternoon list may contain: - Research that needs to get done - Phone calls to make - Email to send - Photos to take - Website maintenance issues - My “to read” file

My evenings are pretty unstructured, but my @evening list may contain: - Household chores - Adding movies to Netflix cue - Potentially long personal phone calls

My only other context is @errands, which is basically a shopping list, which I do either on my lunch break or in the evenings, as needed.

So far, this system has helped to keep my workday structured, which is never easy when your at home sitting in front of a computer with a high-speed connection all day.
