Links to GTD Apps, Templates, & Scripts
Merlin Mann | Dec 31 2004
I’d like to start collecting links to tools, applications, scripts, and templates that people have created for implementing Getting Things Done, and that they would like to share with folks on the web. If there’s something you’d like to see added here, leave a comment with a link and some background information (status, license, platform, etc.), and I’ll check it out. As with our OS X inventory collection, I’ll add the most useful-, novel-, and promising-looking submissions. While I’m not against linking to modestly-priced shareware, preferential consideration goes to stuff that’s open source, free as in beer, and functionally uncrippled (no save-disabled, “bronze??? editions of your commercial package, please). The idea is to showcase the sweat and collaboration that people are throwing behind a shared interest in GTD. Let’s help new folks start their year off with some cool tools and innovative solutions for getting started with Getting Things Done. (N.B.: not to be a kerchief-dropping belle, but I’m going to hang back and wait to hear from a few folks before adding my own suggestions, so don’t be shy about nominating your or your pals’ projects) 47 Comments

Yeah, BSAG’s Ruby app and Douglas Johnston’s planner templates were two that I definitely had in mind. It’s interesting, because what I was thinking about when I wrote the post—and probably phrased badly—was that I wanted to focus on stuff, like the two mentioned here, that had been developed especially with GTD in mind. Not so much the apps you can use for GTD as ones that were being built specifically for that purpose. Seeing people’s links and thinking about it a bit more, though, I wonder if a broader list is what’s needed. I was just pissing and moaning yesterday about wanting to see more direction on how to choose a system (and by extension an app), so maybe that’s a good conversation to have here. Might be helpful to list lots of apps and try to provide guidance on who each might be right for…. /thinking out loud » POSTED IN:
