Hi - does anyone know any issues with Outlook anti-spam plug-ins (I use Cloudmark) and the GTD plug-in? Coudmark is excellent incidentally - updates the anti-spam dbase in real time with a user netwwork of million+
Hi folks- Anyone care to share their thoughts on the relative value of the PDF booklet to the Add In? Am I correct in understanding that the Add In is essentially automation of the process/set up described in the PDF? I've done some forum searching to no avail, and the descriptions of the...
I used a Palm a couple of years ago. Went back to paper and then discovered GTD. I am making the move back to a pda/phone unit. The unit I am using is an older one, donated by a friend so I can see if I like it before dropping the big bucks. Here is my problem. I have been using Outlook...
Hello All, Well for the past few months I have been having a lot of fun. I don't know how many of you out there are fans of military shows, e.g., Top Gun, JAG, etc. You might have seen shots on the bridge of a ship where they have these huge glass panes with grids laid out for mark ups of the...
Can you recommend or nominate a good wireless keyboard and/or mouse for a PC? I saw a GE unit for sale recently at a BJ's Warehouse for @ $30.00. I'm paranoid about installation headaches or system crasjes by adding some new thing to my PC. Has anyone found these decent productivity tools from...
I am searching for a money manager program that synchs with the Palm. Any one have thoughts on what to avoid and what to look for. I am exploring free trials of Ultrasoft Checkbook and Ultrasoft Money a this time (from PalmGear). I want to make sure that which ever machine contains the most up...
Here's a great way to copy read/review material to your PDA on a nightly basis. I like to bookmark web articles I intend to review when I have discretionary time. I use the very popular web bookmarking service del.icio.us. One of the great things about del.icio.us is its tagging feature -- in...
Have just installed Pocket Informant on a Pocket PC, and I can't work out the best way to keep track of projects. Do I add each Project as a Category and then assign this to a new task? If so, where do I find the list of projects to review as part of the Weekly Review? Any advice and other tips...
In an attempt to maximize home efficiency, I'm in the market for a printer which combines capability to print clear, well-defined photos (new baby) as well as clear, well-defined text (for printing multi-page b&w office documents at home). After researching, I've arrived at the Canon I900D. ...
I am just wondering if anyone who has attend the Buzan two day seminars found them worth the time and $650? Was the take home benefit any more than what you can learn on your own from the books and software?
I read email with Pine on a Unix system, so I have plain text mbox-format folders. I recently wrote a short script in the Tcl scripting language that's set up as a cron job to handle folder rotations to implement a Tickler File for my email. The script has been released to the public domain and...

I was reading something interesting on the other half of the GTD Forum, and the person said that they had categories for each of their projects in addition to their context categories. It occured to me that if I did that and could just drag tasks from the project categories into the context...
My Palm 505 doesn't hold a charge for very long, so I'm assuming the rechargeable battery has gone bad. The manual says nothing about this but from what I've read at the Palm site it sounds like I have to send it to them and pay their $125 flat rate repair bill... and evidently not get my own Palm...
I've been fooling around with the idea presented in another thread about using Outlook contacts as Projects and linking tasks/meetings to the Projects. It's an interesting idea and may work but I can't figure out a way to print the Activities tab. Does anyone have any ideas about this? Thanks,...
Anyone implementing GTD using PocketPC? On my Jornada, I use two third party applications to implement GTD: *PocketInformant - very nicely integrates the native Tasks, Contacts and Calendar *Listpro - managers all other non-Next Action Lists, including my project list, project plans, etc....
Just want to put in a good word for Pocket Informant - it has a great Link feature that lets you link your projects to their next action (or vice versa). The "Link" screen has a little search bar that makes it easy to find whatever you want to link to. It is definitely worth the extra effort to...
Hi! I have been using my palm for several months now but I want to set it up to be more useful to me... I need to find programs (free if possible) that will allow me to do what I want to do. I really want to get software for free but I will buy if I have no choice... I have done some...
Hi and happy new year. Trying to achieve some synchronization - winning in some areas but need help with email .... Decided not to retire my dell notebook after my tablet purchase after all and am using it as a media machine if you like - downloaded all my cd's to an external hard drive and...
I am running Outlook 2003 on Windows XP, and the GTD Add-in sometimes seems to disappear. Is there a simple way to get it back, other than restarting my computer? Thanks --Len Edgerly, Denver
