Mac at Home, Windows at Office, PDA in pocket - GTD everywhere?
cpadude | Nov 29 2006
Hello. I'm a student and new to GTD. I have a Mac at home which I have been using with an Excel file to manage projects and Next-Actions by using color coding and marcos to quickly label and identify Contexts. I will soon begin working a full time job and at the office will be using a Windows-based laptop. I also want to get a PDA so I can have my project list and other GTD reference materials with me at time. Has anyone figured out a good system for using all these tools (Mac at home, Windows at office, any PDA everywhere) with robust syncing, seamless (or close to it) transferability and interoperability between the 3 systems? If you have, I would greatly appreciate you telling me what software, PDA model, and paper based tools you used to make it all work. Thanks Mucho 9 Comments

I use it only for Contacts and Calendaring and it syncs flawlessly and instantly with our Exchange 2003 server over-the-air (e.g. I never plug it in). On my Mac at home, Entourage also syncs with Exchange so I'm golden. And all without wires which is HUGE since I hate having to remember to sync all the time. For notes, etc. I just purchased a Circa from Levenger. I am still experimenting with the "lo-fi" part of my life using D*I*Y Planner index cards for NA lists, Projects, and Potentials, but I think I'd like to Circa-fy those items as well to keep everything the same size. Good luck making it work for you! » POSTED IN:
