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
Many have asked if they can help fight spam in this forum. In the bottom left corner of each and every post there is a little "Report Post" icon. You will need to be logged into the Forums to see this icon. It looks like this: Simply click this icon and follow the instructions to report a...
Has anyone found any pads of paper that will fit in a normal sized portfolio (pad holder) glued at the top, that has lines and checkboxes on the left to check off items that are done? Really just a regular pad but with some way to indicate that there are separate items listed on the pad and you...
I am a long time Palm user with a new Palm Treo 700p. Does any one know how to create autofills to minimize typing words I use all the time (like my city or my comany name)? Thanks. Sue.
A few months ago I was desperately searching for a new accounting package to replace my aging (OS 9) package. Finding a Canadian version of GST/PST compatible accounting software is almost impossible, at least one that runs on OS-X on a Mac! From threads in other forums I know that this is a sore...
Hi, One of the most useful things I have found about Outllook is it's ability to define rules to automatically sort email. One of the most frustrating things about Outllook is that it limits these rules to 32k (!). I have been using the program at the following location - ...
I've watched the Mindjet webinar that features DA and had a question about how people know/think David uses mind maps, or how they do themselves. I saw that David does much of his project planning/thinking in mind maps. How then does he use those to populate his NA lists? Does he pick things...
Has anybody in GTD Land used Corel WP Lightning? Interested in any feedback from folks who have used it as a productivity/knowledge management tool. BTW I am not affiliated with Corel in any way- I happened upon the software on another forum. ...
I hear a lot of GTD people talking about these notebooks. What is all the hoopla about? (I mostly just started this thread because I like to use the word hoopla) -Jeff
For those of you interested in MindManager and Lotus Notes, MindJet has invited me to present a Webinar on how I use MindManager and Lotus Notes to get things done. WebEx is hosting the Webinar and there is no fee to attend, however, you must register in advance. I'm soliciting questions on...
How do people mark completed outlook all day events as being done. I look today and see 7 of them, 5 of which are complete. Do I just delete them which means I lose the record I have done something, or mark them in some other way. David
I'm posting this to save others the frustration I've been experiencing in the past 24 hours. One of the key attractors of GTD Connect for me has been the ability to obtain podcasts of specialised content. Imagine my dismay when I tried downloading with iTunes and everything timed out. Again, and...
Curious if anyone has used them both. I've been using the Add In for a few years. I just got introduced to GyroQ. It looks like they do many of the same things. Since I use Mind Manager, I found GyroQ quite intriguing. Does anyone know if the Outlook Add In can somehow be used with Mind Manger?...
Yesterday I heard gadget guru Brian Cooley of CNET speak about the time change we'll be having this weekend. We used to switch in April, now we'll be switching in March. That is definitely going to affect software and gadgets, and the GTD entries within them! According to Cooley, PC's will...
like many users, i place manila folders inside hanging files. but i've run into a problem. when the manila folders are placed in the hanging files, their printed labels are partially obscured; the tabs aren't tall enough to clear the edges of the hanging files. has anyone else encountered...
Has anyone used mvelopes.com for budgeting and bill pay? Your experience? other software used?
I use Outlook 2003. I would like Actions/Tasks to be flagged up in a different colour when they have been on my list for over two weeks. I realise I can set a due date two weeks hence but would like this to be done automatically without me having to do the extra clicks every time I input an...
Hi, We’re looking for beta testers of a web-based application which will help you to set, manage and share your goals. It is free, web-based and easy-to-use. We just need you to create an account, set some goals, test it out and tell us what you think about it. That’s it. No expertise needed,...
Hi all, I just finished GTD and am intrigued. Prior to reading this book, I was considering purchasing a smart phone. I had an old Palm PDA back in the day (98 or so), but never really used it well because it was a little bulky and didn't have good processes for managing the flow. With the GTD...
Maybe coincidence and maybe not. I think the trial version of PlanPlus killed my Palm's ability to synch my date book. Even after removing it (I think I removed it, but maybe parts remain) from both the handheld and the desktop, I can't get this function to work now. I have a Zire 71, granted it...
My team has been developing a text-message (SMS) based "Reeminder" system to help you remember those little things where a full-blown calendar solution just isn't necessary. We're looking for your feedback on our FREE tool. Do you love it? Hate it? Think something else? Please let us know at...
I can't find one anywhere (I'm in Australia). People don't seem to know what I'm talking about. I've heard Brian Tracy mention it on one of his audio tapes - he called it DESK FILE, by Mead Company. I've searched for this on the net, but have not found it. I'd like a good quality one that is...
