Due the abundance of information out there about "Getting Things Done" (GTD), David & Co. has responded with a web page that provides an official definition of this term: http://www.davidco.com/what_is_gtd.php

I have been using OneNote 2007 for a few months now as my almost exclusive GTD tool. I decided to try and stick with one tool as far as I could rather than evaluating (procrastinating??) every new web based application, one of which seems to be realeased on an almost weekly basis these days. I...
Preferably economic, recycled ones which are straight-cut or 1/3 cut (http://tinyurl.com/2q66cw), though this isn't strictly necessary. Failing that, are there any workarounds for making the tabs on foolscap-size tabbed folders stick out beyond the hanging "Pendaflex" folders? I'm reluctant to...
I have been using the GTD method for several months now, having read both books and been lucky enough to get a copy of the GTD-Fast seminar. All outstanding. Like Mr. Allen, I use a Palm - an old Palm, the M505 to be exact. I have been meaning to upgrade (a Treo, maybe) but haven't because I'm...
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 have been using a program called Clear Context IMS Professional for implementing GTD and TWC (Total Work Day Control) -- I am finding it very helpful. Installation was a breeze. It comes with the TWC settings already implemented and it has a GTD configuration users manual that is free ...
Since using GTD I find that though I have projects in my professional roles.. in my personal areas( finance , health etc.), i may not need projects in each but just 1 step tasks that should be filed in Single Action Projects right? All you GTD'ers would say yes. but my Feeling and intuition is...
need to get a new label printer for my PC, what do you guys use?
Inka Ball Point Pen, The Pen That Writes Anywhere http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000P645GY/ref=nosim/uncrate-20 almost the same as the rotring, cooler looking though
I'm looking at changing from a 3-ring binder to a Circa junior notebook. I like the idea of a smaller size system. This would be following David Allen's article on setting up a paper planner, except my calendar is seperate (Staples' pocket calendar). I think all I'd need is the junior notebook and...
I've just posted a quick review and screen movie of GyroQ, a powerful capture tool that I've recently added to my eProductivity tool kit. http://www.ericmackonline.com/ica/blogs/emonline.nsf/dx/gyroq-a-powerful-mindmanager-capture-tool
I need a voice recorder for Treo 750v (Windows based). Integrated software requires me to open the Notes and then click to rec button on the screen. That's not easy while driving. I've tried 3d party apps but they were the same style or were booting up too long so I had time to stop and take a pen...
Does anyone know of a source for inexpensive pads that will fit the DA NoteTaker wallet? Thanks, Max
Once read that David used ACT! (www.act.com) software for his company. My team has recently purchased it for our workgroup. As someone who is new and learning more about GTD everyday I am looking for ways to implement it in the most efficient ways possible. One of the nice compenents to ACT! is...
The latest release of the new add-in has been out for a while, though admittedly I've just upgraded my copy. So far I like what I see. I was actually afraid the new project dialog would be over-engeneered and hard to use, but so far it seems to be extremely useful and easy. I'm curious...
Bottom line is I don't have and can't build, a single, complete view of my life. At work, we have to use Outlook. Aside from the fact that I very much dislike Outlook, I refuse to sync my personal tasks, notes and appointments to a closely monitored company server. I use Palm Desktop for...
I am currently looking to implement the GTD methodology using Outlook 2002 and using the GTD plugin to help me keep track of all of the contacts I'm making on my way to getting a new job. Since jobs in my line of work only last a few days to a few months, I'm always needing to make new contacts...
Hello, Just wondering where you all keep your Someday Maybe items? As individual task items in Outlook, set with a category of Someday Maybe? As a list in a Word document? A list in an Excel spreadsheet?
I thought the Microsoft article http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA011436401033.aspx] was not very good at illustrating the power of Onenote for GTD. For me, Onenote serves as a great archive of papers, images, and text, as well as a powerfull Next Action capturer. I've divided my...
I just bought Outlook 2007 over the weekend. I can get my Palm to Sync, but if I create something in Outlook it's not going to my Palm calendar. I also use Outlook 2003 at work. There it took all my contacts and I lost all the categories. I have thousands of contacts. I can't imagine how...
I'm finding that looking at a long list of @computer, @office, @calls in Outlook is a bit overwhelming. Not that the list is long and I don't think I can do it, but with the various choices available I'm tending to rely on what is in my head to do rather than what is on my list. At the moment...
