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

 Mac and WindowsSubmitted by tavish on January 3, 2007 - 8:35am.
I'm using a Mac at home and Windows at work so I went searching for something that I could use for both. In the end I picked ThinkingRock. It's free, runs on both platforms and saves data as a .xml file so I can either email it between home and work or save it to my memory stick. Oh, and you can print your next actions in the PocketMod format, which I do and then keep it in my Moleskin. I also make use of the GTD plugin for Gmail (Firefox only), but I end up dumping all of my Gmail into my mail.app at home where I have set up appropriate folders. I'm using GTD loosely with Outlook at work. » POSTED IN:
