GTD Outlook add-in?
onepinktee | Mar 5 2006
A former coworker has been touting the benefits of the Outlook add-on available to download at David Allen's site, but I'm not convinced. Any comments? Does anyone out there love it? Why? Conversely, are there any haters out there? Why? Danke. 14 Comments

I think it is far...Submitted by emory on March 5, 2006 - 4:24pm.
I think it is far too hard to "get rid of it" once you install it, personally. I had fits trying to remove its grip over Outlook, but someone here helped me out; http://board.43folders.com/showthread.php?t=129 File that away for later, just in case you don't like it. If you live and die by Outlook, it isn't bad at all. I just refuse to hand everything over to it. I don't like Outlook and the only computer I have that runs it usually lives in the bottom of a drawer. So it makes no sense when I Get Things Done on other machines. If you live in multiple worlds at all you should make sure you've exhausted all of your other options. I think most people should think long and hard before keeping personal information on company-issued kit. Do you really want your employer knowing what you do @home, who you are @call'ing? That weighed very heavily into my decision to never touch Outlook except as required to. » POSTED IN:
