Getting the 8125 Wizard from Cingular today. How are you guys using GTD with a smartphone/ppc phone edition? All on the PPC, some on the PPC, combining with Paper? Thanks for any feedback! Joel
There are several issues with the activities and calendar in ACT 2006 which are causing us distress: 1. For activities with multiple contacts associated, the tag "multiple contacts" appears on the task and the monthly calendar instead of the contact names (if we are printing the monthly...
An update for anyone who is wondering what's new with the David Allen product line: The David Allen Company has begun to introduce a number of its new GTD productivity products on the Web site. These new items are being designed and manufactured directly by our company, rather than working with...
I just downloaded this app from www.MandalaIT.com after reading a positive review about it at symbianone. It looks ideal for mobile GTD, and I very much like that you can import word files and mindmanager outlines. I'm thinking of buying it since they are offering a 70% discount for the next two...
Hi just wondering if anyone is testing Beta 2 of OL 2007 and implementing GTD with it. I am interested in people's feedback and if they think it lessens the need for the GTD add-in, when used in conjunction with One Note 2007.
Does anyone know of an Outlook 3rd party add-on that allows me to create a task hierarchy similar to an outline format? I am a big fan of Ecco and have used it in the past for creating task hierarchy, but I really want to standardized on Outlook now. Thanks.
I have an 8 hour bus ride coming up and I am one of those people that can't read, write, or type on buses. I am looking for something worth listening to that can help me get a little more savvy with just about anything that will improve my productivity or relationships, such as finances, basic...
Just found out that MindManager is now available for the Mac. I've swtiched all of my PCs to Mac except for one laptop, and MindManager was one of those Windows only apps that I use extensively and wasn't willing to let go of just yet. I tried using NovaMind, FreeMind and OmniGraffle, and while...
I had been using a palm that syncs with Outlook but now use TiddlyWiki and D*I*Y Planner as my GTD system. But that leaves me with just contacts in Outlook. I use Thunderbird for email at home but do not like the address book they have. One of the main features I need is to be able to easily...
I have just begun to explore some of the more recent Web 2.0 applications and their potential use for GTD. I have now set my system to use CalendarHub for my calendar needs and RememberTheMilk for my @NAs. There are some interesting integration points between the applications using iCal and...
Having seen several references to mind mapping software tools on davidco.com, wondering if anyone has had any/much experience with them? If so, can you shortcut me to the one you think is the best and why you think that? Am getting tired of getting a blank piece of paper or whiteboard,...
I have been GTDing for three years. I started in Excel. I quickly migrated to Outlook, then the Netcentrics Outlook Add-in. I stayed with the Add-In for more than two years. My goal has always been to get things done, not to have the latest system with the neatest gadgets. From time to time I would...
I'm curious to find out the volume of email I receive and send each day. Does anyone know of an easy way to do this? I've seen sample's of an article by Sue Mosher MVP but can't find the full article.
David Allen commented on the use of colored plastic folders for travel purposes instead of the standard manilla folders which tend to get beaten up. I've gone to Office Depot, Office Max, etc. and I have been unable to find them. Does anyone know of a source online? TIA Mike
I'm using the 30-day trial version at the moment. It's cool. You can set up memoboards and add tabs for specific projects. Click on picture to view Post-It Digital Notes' features.
I'm currently in the early implementation phase of a major upgrade to several mainframe systems, and I have been carrying the manuals, etc on my laptop in PDF format. This has worked well thus far, as it allows me to trudge through them as time permits. The problem I am encountering, however, is...
Does anyone have another invite? If so, I'd be grateful if you would send it to me at mhyatt (at) bellsouth (dot) net. Thanks.
Hi everybody, I would like to start keeping a journal for noting my everyday experiences/feelings/etc. Does anyone know about a good PC software for keeping a journal ? Or if you think I dont need a software to do that please feel free to making your suggestions. Thanks Luca
I might have asked this before, but I'm hoping someone will have a new/different suggestion for me. I'm having a very difficult time with my list organization. I'm okay with Outlook making a task from an email, that seems to work okay for me--almost too well...it's all I do these days. I get a...
