You can assign a due date to each project as well as to each individual task. This is great for work projects, putting together a job application, planning a vacation or event, and more. A project is a task that involves subtasks in order to be complete. Things also includes a different way to organize, and that's with Projects. An area is a user-defined category that makes it easy for you to sort for something specifically related to, say, work, family, or errands. When you are ready to organize, each to-do can be assigned tags and an area. For example, with Mail, it will create a link to the email you're reading and copy any text you've selected.

If you download Things Helper, you can upgrade the Quick Entry with an Autofill feature that will automatically add useful information from the app you're currently using.

On the Mac, you can also setup shortcuts for Quick Entry that will open a window to add a new task regardless of which app you're currently using. The Inbox is where you put to-dos that you're not ready to organize, yet. But there's no denying that sometimes you just want to quickly add something to your list without going through a long, drawn-out process (because even 30 seconds can feel like a long time when you're in a hurry), and that's exactly what your Inbox is for.

To use Things to it's fullest capabilities, you must invest a little time organizing list items by tagging them, moving them to an area (like a category), set up recurring to-dos, and adding notes.
