		<description>I tried 20+ GTD apps..and then had a GTD methology crisis

The App that has given me most productivity to date is ImOnTime http://www.expersis.com/.
For MY style it seems to be the best way to organise (although itâ€™s not for all) as itâ€™s an active management system (or should i say re-active ???)
Once your in a mindset that any system is a chore and will require maintenance then the â€œpop up â€ reminders that I.O.T. throw up will be accepted as part of the pay-off

I tried GTD on omifocus for 6 months
I never got anything done

I think GTD is over-rated

I think it starts to crumble once your data swells. Inevitably your entries will grow and it will become harder and harder to constantly order and manage tasks.

Also maybe a creative mind is always changing and adapting by the minute. Thatâ€™s where the GTD system is too rigid

A good article on the subject(link below) talks about why more creative people may have a problem with GTDâ€¦.Thatâ€™s me (too much coming in at once &amp; a need to be totally flexible)â€¦heres the article http://zenhabits.net/2009/04/seven-productivity-tips-for-people-that-hate-gtd/</description>

		<description>Hello, in regard to this post I will state I use this app everyday and it has become an exceptional addition to my workflow. 

However, the purpose for this comment, and many more to follow is to &quot;get your attention&quot; from your invitation callout in your latest post: &quot;20 sites every mac user should bookmark.&quot; 

So quite obviously I am doing this for the purpose of achieving an invitation to the site brokenstones. 

As I plan to write a short comment on each article Mr Chung has written over the course of his Makeuseof Career.

Oh by the way, my email is: baker at swgms.com</description>

		<description>For implementing GTD you might try out this web-based application:

Gtdagenda.com

You can use it to manage your goals, projects and tasks, set next actions and contexts, use checklists, schedules and a calendar.
A mobile version is available too.

As with the last update, now Gtdagenda has full Someday/Maybe functionality, you can easily move your tasks and projects between &quot;Active&quot;, &quot;Someday/Maybe&quot; and &quot;Archive&quot;. This will clear your mind, and will boost your productivity.

Hope you like it.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve recently learned of GTD and have written about my experiences as a switcher from Covey to Allen at http://johnkendrick.wordpress.com  I&#039;ll have to check out this application, although I&#039;ve recently adopted another that lets me take my GTD wherever I go, on my desktop at home or work, and even on my iPhone.

		<description>Yes, we&#039;ve decided to start branching out a bit.   Jackson is going to start covering Mac applications and we are also exploring the possibility of covering other things such as Linux.    But it&#039;s still early days and we are not sure yet how we are going to go about it.     But when we decide, you&#039;ll be the first to know about it!  :-)</description>
