My kGTD setup
Merlin Mann | Dec 7 2005
Related to today's earlier post, a number of people have written over the past few weeks with curiosity about kGTD ("Is it worth buying OmniOutliner Pro?" "Is it worth buying a Mac?" "Will I be able to vanquish all foes?"). While I'm not prepared to do a major sales presentation, I am happy to oblige the folks who wanted to see how I've set mine up. Also gives you a little window into my current contexts (as well as my atrocious personal habits). Screenshot here (best viewed full size): comments and questions will be entertained. 52 Comments

Now if only there would...Submitted by John (not verified) on December 7, 2005 - 8:16am.
Now if only there would be such an application running under windows too. I hate to bring it up again, but after having been a loyal reader of 43F since the beginning, and trying out a gazillion different applications to give me a good GTD setup, I'm still coping with a less-than-ideal setup: ePIM on a USB-stick. Don't get me wrong, ePIM is a great piece of software with a really good development cycle and ingrained beta-team, but it doesn't do the job as easy as, say an application like Tracks. But in all fairness, any GTD application that takes me to setup an application framework, a webhost and a seperate database to run, isn't going to easily work in most people's setups. Anyhow, I digress. Conclusion: kGTD looks spiffy, wish I could testdrive it too. Oh and Merlin, your contexts don't look that shabby at all. It's all about reviewing the contexts every now and then. I do that during my weekly review. I'm setting aside 15 minutes to write down some stuff I've found out regarding how I work/deal with the GTD system. From there I see if I can (with a quick hack/change that is) improve the systematics if needs be (like splicing or combining contexts, etc). I digress again! Good stuff, keep it up. » POSTED IN:
