I have been reading about this Outlook Projects as Contacts for a while and decided to try it today. I tried a few different things with my Laptop's Outlook 2003 and my PocketPC Pocket Informant. It appears that 1) if on my laptop contacts are placed in a folder other than the default...
Anyone using these two together? I have had ACT for years but use about 1 percent of its capabilities. Almost all of my NAs are connected with a person or company so I think I could make this work. Suggestions, anyone? Carolina Songbird
... and bought some moleskines! I am a palm user. Always have been (since the days of the Handspring Visor) and always will be (until I get a bluetooth dongle for my brain!). However recently I hae been using a blank notebook for scribbled ideas - in the corridor at school (I'm a teacher), in the...
This is not what you think it is. I am not asking for software. But this thread belongs in the gagets section because people often come here to find a software that "does what Act does", or "does what Goldmine does", or "does what Covey does". So...without refering to actual software...what...
Is anybody using GTD with the Linux Outlook-clone Evolution? http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/screenshots.shtml http://www.novell.com/products/desktop/features/evolution.html I'd be interested in adding some GTD add-in-like extensions to the system, but I'd need to connect with somebody...
I have several dozen tasks, and a number of them have due dates many weeks or months away, and I don't want them in my view for day to day task selection. I want to create a filter that only shows me tasks whose due date is within say 4 weeks of today - so that when the task comes into this time...
Hi everyone, Has anyone found a good program for setting goals on the Palm? Any suggestions are welcome, but one with a Windows desktop component are preferred. Perhaps I mean a desktop program, with a satellite for Palm. Thanks!
Another software suggestion please - a program that can do quick and dirty checklisting for Windows. Preferably something that has a "always on top" feature so that I can use to list the steps in my weekly review. Thanks!
If I save or drag an Outlook email message, it creates a .msg file. When I double click on this file, Outlook opens. The full thing. Not a viewer. This is a pain. I realize that this is useful if I want to use that .msg as a message to reply/forward/resend etc. But, if I am using a two...
A new product from Chronos, SOHO Organizer, has been released by Chronos. It replaces their products Personal Organizer and Group Organizer. I have spent 15 minutes with the calendar/task list component, and I recommend staying away from it, for two reasons: 1) It has very little value. It uses...
Hello everyone. Can someone describe in as much detail as possible the design of the NoteTaker Wallet? The picture in the online store is not good since you can't see any details, and the description doesn't provide any details as to number of credit card slots, drivers license slot, money slot,...
For those who have tried Personal Brain, there's a brief but facinating description of the next version here: http://www.kmworld.com/Articles/ReadArticle.aspx?ArticleID=15807 Briefly, the developers propose to create and network the entire computer file structure as a network. In essence,...
As part of my GTD implementation I find that I am now in need of Calendar Program. All I want is something to just plan out the week with, and give me a visual representation and allow me to easily juggle things around. Basically all I want is something that can give me a 5 or 7 Day week view,...
For those who use palms, there is a new version of Agendus out. It has many spiffy features, most of which work. The one I like the best is a checklist feature. You list items, one per line, in the notes section, with a + or - at the beginning. This displays as a checklist in a view of the item,...
Hi, I am working in as a consultant in an office whereby Notes is the norm... I need to be able to sync my Email & Calander at the office (Lotus Notes 6.5) with Outlook, so I can backup the email/calander in Outlook on my base computer. I have not yet purchased a Palm/PDA/ etc as I am...
During the last few months, I've noticed a real change in how I set up or choose the tools that I use. I've set my browser to stop displaying the bookmarks bar. I've removed the disk icon from the desktop. I've replaced the desktop image with a solid grey-green background. I've removed all but the...
Look. I don't know if this is the right place to "advertise, but I'm going to risk it. I have been trying an add-on for Mail on the Mac called "Mail-Tags". It allows you to add all kinds of keywords, which can then be used in Spotlight and Smart Folders. My main use has been to keep track of...
I am looking for an inexpensive but reasonably featured PIM for my (non-task related) home use. I use MLO for task management and I use Outlook for work. I came across WinPIM and it looks promising. It seems like it has reasonable set of features and also has the ability to sync with Outlook as...
