Software that works well with GTD

New to the site. I like it.

I wonder if there is software that is very simple, but useful in helping use the GTD methodology.

Thanks

dependencies

I just had a play with SimpleGTD - that's some tasty AJAXing. But I couldn't see how it does dependencies between actions: if action A depends on action B which in turn depends on action C, is there any way to indicate that in the software?

All I saw was that some actions can be marked as next actions (presumably that's what the star is?), and some actions can be left unstarred (gtd-php operates in the same way). I do like the drag-and-drop task-ordering that simpleGTD has got: I used that in MS-Project a lot, and have been considering implementing it in gtd-php.

And I didn't see an easy way to do the weekly-review task of identifying those projects that have no starred action, in SimpleGTD - is there one I'm missing?.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
