I created my own macro which adds the project to the beginning of the task name, so you can sort by project. I use * as the delimiter since Outlook, Pocket Informant and Blackberry all sort * before alpha characters. The [ character is sorted after alpha characters on Blackberry. Here is the...
There is a new web based GTD todo list released :smile:
Hi, I am looking for personal finance management software which is Apple OS X compatible. I don't have to track stocks and like right now. I would like an alternative to quicken. Thanks, Geoff
Hi, I currently own a SonyEricsson P900, but am considering plumping for a lovely new T-Mobile MDA Compact, which runs Windows PocketPC Phone Edition. Now, I reckon I can get this synced with my Powerbook using a piece of software called PocketMac. However, this will sync regular applications...
Ok, I'm not that technical! I know most people use Palms or some other PDA, and I've TRIED. But I hate them. I would much rather just use Outlook on my laptop and I've only recently FINALLY organized it according to GTD. My question is: is there any way to backup Outlook to my external hard...
I’m looking for a headset to a basic (home) desk phone – not a cordless, necessarily. Can you recommend a phone or headset system that is almost universally adaptable? Any tips or suggestions would be deeply appreciated! Thanks! Kevin kquinley@cox.net
Most of my work requests come throught email and I find managing the tasks daunting. Have tried setting up folders both digital (in email client) and paper and neither seems to be working for me. I'm thinking that I could use procmail to dump incoming emails into a database (preferably...
I use Outlook at work and home w/ an HP Ipaq sync'ed to both. At times, I will get a time shift where appointments will slide an hour...so a 9 AM appointment becomes a 10. Usually, desktop Outlook is correct and my ipaq is the one that gets shifted. Here's the weird part, if I correct the...
Does anyone know any good tools written for the Sony Ericsson P910i, I recently moved to this phone/PDA rather than my old phone and Palm combination. Its is great to have it all in one but I do miss some of the functionality of the Palm
I have all of my projects, NAs, etc on my Palm. I recently started work in a bigger office where they run a network. I arranged for my Zire software to be loaded onto my office PC … but then it dawned on me: will the network manager be able to access all of my personal data on my PC if I hot synch?...
I haven't had my own internet connection in years, and never used anything besides anti-virus software. The internet seems to have gotten more dangerous over the years though. I'm taking the plunge soon and am looking for suggestion about anit-virus programs, firewalls, anti-spyware/adware stuff,...
Here is my dilemna (and I can't possible be the only one in this spot). Have a home computer and a computer at work. Husband makes plans for Saturday night and puts them on the computer at home so I know what is happening. Then someone at work calls me and says what am doing Saturday night?, I...
A while back somebody posted a tool for the add on to add a custom view for the daily review. It was written in HTML. I can't find it anymore and I would like to download it. Does anybody know where I can get it? Thank you, Daniel
Okay folks, don't ask me why I'm doing this, since I don't really use the GTD Outlook Addin, preferring instead to exploit the multi-faceted Projects-As-Contacts method. However, I've heard the requests for some sort of "summarizing" functionality in the Addin, akin to the Activities tab for...
My company prohibits PDAs. Tried installing the trial version of Bonsai for Windows desktop, but it still seems to try and install the conduit manager. I don't intend on evaluating this for a PDA, I'm just looking at it for Windows, but can't get the install to complete due to the attempts to...
Is anyone using theBrain software? I am looking at it, and it seems to be an effective way of organizing computer files etc. Does it have a GTD application beyond organizing reference files? Thanks! Bill

Ok not quite a GTD issue but I have recently started a new job which means I have loads of notes about products, software and people which I want to draw together and store in a sensible form electronically. A few people have suggested a WIKI but I'd prefer something on a laptop without the...
I have been using Datebk5 for about 3 years now, and it's by far my most used Palm application of all time. I was looking for a program to keep all my projects in as I found Datebk5 not quite suitable for that purpose (although I had seen many ways to adjust it for that use in many posts in the...
HI all, I am looking for a calendar app that I can use on my T5 that does NOT sync up. In other words, I want to be able to maintain a calendar (and not sync up) with my work PC (IE, keep some appts on my palm, or keep some personal appts in a separate (at home/nights/weekends) calendar. Has...
