I was wondering if I am the only one constantly trying out new software for doing my GTD stuff. I've changed a couple of email clients in the last few years, but my real weakness are the task managers. I've tried a huge number: for PC, for Mac, web-based, for Pocket PC (back then), for Windows...

Not sure about the etiquette of posting something from David's tweet back to his forum but I really enjoyed looking at this: The original is slightly larger showing the printer on the right. If you want to see it go here.
Hi all - So I've recently moved from the US to Britain. Something that is driving me a little nuts is the different way that filing cabinets are set up here. I am used to having a bunch of hanging file folders (I know this is what David Allen says NOT to do) and then within my hanging files...

Hello all, I use omnifocus but don't really make use of all the features, because to be honest they are a bit too complicated for me. However, I would like to make use of the system that allows you to email in actions to your omnifocus inbox. Having never used it I just wanted to see what...
I run a Kumon centre where I have 70+ students whose parents (should) get regular phone calls updating them on progress. Does anyone know of an app (iphone or Mac) that would automatically remind me to call the parents 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after the students starts...

A quick review of David Allen's GTD Cooridantor in a paragraph ... if you prefer a paper based system buy this binder NOW !!! The index cards, moleskins, coiled binders and all the DIY stuff can never do what this system can. For the price... $50 ... it's a steal! I've used all the systems I've...
