Community Forums: PUBLIC: Discuss Gear & Software for GTD

I have quite a few projects delegated to members of my staff. How should I track them in the GTD methodology? The next actions all belong to the staff "owners" of the projects. My own next actions with regard to these projects is "get update", which I set up as agenda tasks. Should I be...

Anyone use Moleskine notebooks to record their ideas or meeting notes while on the go? I got one as a gift about a year ago and have been hooked ever since. Love the bookmark and folding pocket for b-cards, phone numbers, etc. Just wondering... --benkorn

In Microsoft Outlook is it possible to view both the inbox and the calendar panes at the same time? How does one do this?

Many moons ago I read a David Allen blurb from the "Tips and Tools" section about how he uses his palm. I also read recently in the "Coaches Corner" several articles that mentioned palm usage. I am just wondering if David and the other coaches are still using the standard applications as outlined...

Here is a tip I think people may find useful. I still have my old filing cabinets for now ((2) non-HON 2 drawer cabinets)). They do not have the sliding back to hold up the files. Instead they have this v shaped wire contraption that does not do the job at all. I have tossed those and instead...

I really love David's idea of putting everything down on paper as soon as possible so that our mind doesn't have to remember the same things twice. And I have a pen in my car, near my bed, and on my coffee table. But I have had trouble finding a small pen for either a keychain or wallet for when...

I saw one of these at Bag and Baggage for $75. Seemed really nice and the right size for a wallet/notepad combo. Right now its 25% off. Anyone using something less expensive?

I am in the real estate business and have to use a contact management software program to keep track of my leads and clients. I am curious to know which of them - Goldmine, ACT, Maximizer etc. - everyone is using to keep track of their business contacts, and also are they using the same program to...

The question was asked ... "Which PDA is best"? My $0.02 is "the one that you will use every day!" Doesn't matter if it ic compaq, sony, palm, etc Take the time to get familar with the features and when you find one that doesn't hurt your head with complexity and the one that is easiest for...

Two gadget questions: 1) I would welcome suggestions for a small robust digital recorder that allows easy digital transfer of voice data direct to a PC (ideally via USB). 2) I am using the Eversharp pen as my 'always in pocket' writing device - perfect size, write upside down etc. But it...

Hi, Any suggestions on this one. I have been assigned a Blackberry for work and while it is great for email processing I can't seem to figure out how to get the category to come across so I can sort by context. I went to the field mapping and there is no appropriate field to map into on the...

I recently purchased a Tablet PC. (http://www.tabletpc.com) I figured it would make it easier to use Outlook on the road. (I type really fast, but could never get used to the input on a Palm or Pocket PC.) Wow.this device is truly amazing. You really need to try one. The handwriting input is...

I am enjoying the Add-in, and becoming more familiar with it, however, I would like more Project management functionality which is not e-mail related. I thought I would start a thread requesting contributions as to what this might look like if implemented in SP-2 Personally, I would like to be...

Hi Folks (realizing this might be the correct forum for this), Sorry if this is a dumb question but after scanning the boards, I'm still not clear. I'm a casual ACT! user ready to make the PDA jump. I'd prefer to start off in the "right" direction and avoid a mid stream jump down the road...
