Every six months or so I look at Zoot, become intimidated, think about pretty screens, RTF, colour, and then close Zoot.

I have not been happy with my ability to get a task set up that I like in other programs. I want to use a GTD format. But I have always thought it would mean moving a lot of stuff around, and cloning it. So I don’t really get down to it.

This morning I opened up Zoot. Looking at the task section, and seeing what the Admiral has already done, with some trial and error, and only one brief look at the help file, I managed to set up project and context-based next action views. It really seems to work. I have put in one task, and presto, it showed up where it should in the Admiral’s views, as well as the ones I created.

I think I like it. I think it will do what I want, which is to be able to brainstorm, plan, and do task assignements from one place without a lot of fuss.

Guess I’d better send the Admiral some money.
