I'm leaning heavily into emacs with a series of 'todo' files - just plain text. ctrl-s (search) lets me jump around in them. I'm just getting into GTD, but so far the best idea is to keep all of your stuff in one place. I recently renamed my 700-item InBox '__DMZ', which I'm slowly going though, but the idea is to 'stop sucking'. Since then, I've committed to keeping my InBox empty every day, as often as possible. If there's something I need to do, it goes onto the todo list, not sitting in the inbox. That way it's in the same place as everything else. I got a Fujutsu ScanSnap scanner to scan all my paper into one place for processing. So far, that world and the todo list aren't merged, but I hope they might be some day. I've used a Moleskine pad for a year and a half, but I've been historically bad about offloading its contents onto the todo. Another place I need to 'stop sucking'. The 43folders guy gave a techtalk @Google on 'inbox zero' that was worth watching. The best thing is to use the system that you'll actually use. Anything else is just a waste of time. -Bill ----- Bill McGonigle, Owner Work: 603.448.4440 BFC Computing, LLC Home: 603.448.1668 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cell: 603.252.2606 http://www.bfccomputing.com/ Page: 603.442.1833 Blog: http://blog.bfccomputing.com/ VCard: http://bfccomputing.com/vcard/bill.vcf _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
