GTD and ClearContext
turtlewax | Oct 19 2006
Hi, I got the GTD audiobook about three months ago, since then I have been trying to get started with the methodology. A couple of weeks ago I decided to download ClearContext to try to see if it would help me manage my Inbox and jumpstart my use of GTD. There are a some things that I like about this program: 2. I also enjoy the prioritization of messages in my inbox. Since I use gmail to collect all my messages from different accounts and then use Outlook to download them to my PC, I get a lot of messages about work, personal or spam. With this feature I am able to see my most important messages at the top and spam usually ends up in the bottom of the list. 3. For filing away messages I can assign topics to messages and they are automatically stored away and out of my Inbox. Thanks to ClearContext I am now able to keep my Inbox empty most of the time. However, I am also looking at other options. I would like to try to test using OneNote for all my other projects that do not arrive through my Inbox and has the advante that it also integrates with Outlook. Finally, I would like to keep my Action List on my Smartphone, but that part I have not figured out yet. Writing on my smartphone with the keypad and t9 text is not easy. Any ideas or suggestions on how to use OneNote and how to incorporate my Smartphone? Thanks. POSTED IN:
