That's brilliant! Thanks so much for all that help - it's exactly the information I was looking for. And it's pretty much as I suspected; it sounds like the women's trifold would be usable with £20...
I know - I used to buy things from the US all the time but I've stopped since the post office started charging their ridiculous £8 'processing fee' on top of the customs charges. I suppose the upside...
Thanks for letting me know! I think the men's trifold will probably be my best bet if I don't hear from anyone with the women's version in the next week or so. I'm particularly liking the price on...
I'm American but I live in Britain and I work occasionally in continental Europe. I've been eyeing the Notetaker wallet (all variations and incarnations) for years and the only thing that has kept me...
I find that I primarily use a calendar and electronic files for my tickler. I do have a small hanging file holder (like this) on my desktop that I keep forms that I use regularly in, and I have a...
My favourite google tips are:
1) The minus (-) symbol. This removes irrelevant words from your search. For example, if you wanted to do a search about Microsoft Bing and didn't want any...
I use a hybrid system: MyLifeOrganized keeps track of my projects and every action related to them. I write down approximately a weeks' worth of Next Actions in my paper system (a simple Circa-style...
I'm trying to work my way through this as well. I'm partly trying to deal with it holistically (I've always been an insomniac, so I'm trying to regulate my sleep patterns for better energy levels and...
I don't know if I can offer any helpful advice, because I feel that I'm often stuck in that same cycle myself.
Can you take your inbox home? I'm lucky to have pretty flexible employers, and...
I'm starting to favour an as-electronic-as-possible approach as well. I've heard great things about the ScanSnap, and I'm saving my pennies to buy one of my own. But the two things that have probably...
I just wanted to add that Heinlein may have been referring to the publishing process rather than the drafting process. I'm an editor myself, and the one thing that authors really deserve to be shot...
You can organize PDFs (and, I think, other files) using iTunes:

The comments to that article also give some alternative solutions for electronic filing that you might be useful.

I don't actually have the Notetaker Wallet, but I wanted to add that the lack of a change pocket or similar is what has prevented me from buying one. I live in Britain; we don't have one dollar...
Oops, sorry and thanks for that correction! That probably means that I'll be more likely to consider it in the future.
What format are they in?
I signed up for the free trial of GTD Connect and, although I didn't take out a paid membership, I did enjoy the benefits of the Connect program.
There are loads of extra articles (though these...
Getting Things Done Fast is definitely my favourite! The Getting Things Done (original book) audio was a bit slow paced and I hardly ever revisit it, but GTDFast seems very conversational and...
Mine hasn't dispatched yet, and now Amazon UK is listing a December 30 release date.
I had originally done a long post with direct links, but the system seems to have eaten it! I'll offer a slightly condensed version with some ideas instead.
Portable tickler file: If you need a...
It definitely depends on how you use the files and how many files you have. My basic folder structure is:
0. Inbox
1. Pending
2. Current Projects
3. Reference
I have the same folder...
If you're not up for a paper solution, or if you type faster than you write (like me) and hate recopying lists, you might try MyLifeOrganized.
It's free for (I think) 30 days and the GTD template...
