Interview in IEEE rag

This interview (just regular GTD stuff) emerged from a fun evening at dinner with physicist-turned-journalist Stephen Cass at IEEE's Spectrum magazine in New York. I got to play like I was a seriously real geek, peeking into that world with him. The photo shoot was fun, too, maybe because I had laryngitis and felt awful... you know, one of those times when you just give it up and get a little crazy...

As a lazy, deconstructed geek, I loved when you say: "geeks are lazy, just like me". Being lazy (but having a lot of things to do) has been the main driver behind my interest in GTD. I even felt a bit guilty about that but I see now that I'm not alone.

And thanks for your work, David ! Makes me sleep better !

The photo shoot shots are hilarious - a pictorial version of what's at the heart of the GTD process. I particularly love the first photo of David "emptying his head"...and of course the last shot of the happy (though somewhat ill) guy enjoying the benefits of an empty head!

I'd *love* to see the "14 pages describing what software would need to do to help you empty your head and facilitate thinking through the processing stages". Is there any chance of that or are you using them as requirements for your own software developers?
