I am trying to save Bill's "Contacts as Projects" form (http://home.comcast.net/~whkratz/id15.htm) to my Outlook, but it's not taking. It's all good until I get to the Projects Properties window and the project form doesn't appear in the "When posting..." drop down list. My only options are...

As I mentioned in a post I did a few days ago, I’ve just recently become active on the forum, although I’ve been using GTD for about a year. I was scanning through old threads and found one titled “Ubiquitous Capture Tool” that I’d like to comment upon, as it relates to my business. I am somewhat...
Hi Everyone, I've recently gotten into the GTD methodology after hearing David speak at my school. I've been using Things on both my MacBook and iPhone, and it works great. I'm looking to be able to sync notes between my laptop and iPhone though for packing lists, idea lists, etc. that don't fit...
GTD is all about lists, and one intriguing possibly for lists is a web-based application. This lets you access your lists from any computer. Evidently free. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm curious about the possibilities. There's an online video that shows how it works. ...
Hello All. So I'm new to the GTD philosophy. But after reading David's book, I can see so much I agree with and am convinced that once applied the ideas are going to improve my life. However I need to get started! I have bought all the physical tools (Bisley Filing cabinet arriving this...

Just wanted to let you fellow primates know that the new version of my do-it-yourself (paper) planner kit has been released. Currently, it's for standard 5.5"x8.5" paper, but a version for A5 is in the pipe. Included are 50+ templates of ooey-gooey organisational goodness, some stylish covers, a...
Please bear with me on a stupid question. OK - DA recommends a 1/3 cut 2-ply top file folder and I couldn't find this anywhere - does he mean just the plain manila 1/3 cut 2-ply TAB file folder? Thank you.
Hi all. I'm new to GTD (the book is called How to Get Things Done in Australia, for some special secret reason ;) ). It's been very easy to set up so far, but I have hit a hurdle with the -- what you might think would be very easy -- step of getting 1/3 cut manila folders. They do not appear to be...
I began this posting on the general forum, but it seems that the answer may be tech-related, so I'll quickly recap here, then post my questions. I have a corporate job where I work from a home office and on site with 20 fixed clients. All info is done on a corporate laptop on WinXP, on which I...
:? I got myself 2 Brother PT 1500PC Labelers. One home & one at work. I carry my laptop I dock at both locations. Trouble is every time I go to either place I have to reinstall the Printer driver. Seems something senses a new piece of hardware each time I boot up. This is a real pain because in...
Any suggestions for a 2-minute timer? I'm thinking that I don't want to hit more than one button to reset (or start) it. Basically hit a button, it resets to 2 minutes, and go. Most timers I've seen have variable time setting but no presets. Any ideas or suggestions? Why do I want this...
I've been doing a couple things for a while that have been working very well for me, that I haven't heard or read before, and wanted to share them. I use the area at the top of my tasks list just under the calendar items (it says "Type a new task" in it) as an inbox -- if I'm on a call or just...
I have a Palm TX and my wife has just got a Palm TE2. On our PC we use Outlook for Calendar, Contacts, Tasks etc. I have been synchronising my Palm with Outlook which has been working fine. My wife has also started synchronising with Outlook which is fine for Contacts as we use the same Contact...
I used to use Appigo Todo and Action List on the iPod Touch but recently chanced upon this application that i review called 2Do. Thought nothing much of it but once i use it, it turn out pretty great for getting things done. Here is a guide showing how i set up 2Do as my GTD App Guide Here >>]
I just purchased a box of 100 letter sized manilla folders. They usually come in three tab positions. Left tabbed, center tabbed, and right tabbed. Since GTD encourages readily starting new files, it's futile to try to keep the three point system properly staggered. (ie. left, center, right,...
For you guys using a 3 x 5 index card setup, I just noticed that Levenger has little plastic file folders for 3 x 5 cards. Item No. ADS2955. $16 I'm not affiliated, I just spend too much money there. :)
