Graham, I find your comments on GTD being American-centric and other cultures interesting, and would like to invite you to join our discussion on the Yahoo GTD group. This group, which I own, is one o...
Graham, I like the web-based program given with my signature.
I am also using Central Desktop http://www.centraldesktop.com , also a web-based program, to see how it goes.
Part of this is crimping...
Chris, re contexts -- admittedly not for everyone.
However, the intention of contexts is to simplify and shorten task lists.
In your example, the context could simply be "Errands" -- and you'd group...
MSD Organizer

Graham, thanks for the url.
So what do you think?
I downloaded the program, and didn't think much at first.
Then I started to play around a little, and to read the instructions, and began to see th...
New look at old, boring controversy
3/24/2008
Stephen, I am glad to have my Opera experience confirmed by one other person. I think it may be more than a coincidence that this sysop or moderator's name sounds similar to Herrod, as in Kind Herrod,...
New look at old, boring controversy
3/22/2008
Stephen, I think the controversy just got a lot less boring (grin)!
Safari is noticeably faster than anything else I have seen.
My only complaint is that when I brought in my bookmarks from Firefox ...
WhizFolders 6.1 Beta Offers Hoisting
3/17/2008
WhizFolders 6.1 Beta http://whizfolders.com/blog/index.php/2008/01/25/beta-61-released/ offers hoisting. Also offered is a popup view of the whole outline, a thesaurus, spell correction on the fly, de...
Omea Pro FINALLY open source!!!
3/14/2008
Again, I am begging if someone could give me some compare and contrasts between Omea and Idea in terms of what they do and how they do it. I know Omea is faster than it was, which makes it a contender...
Idea vs Omea Pro
3/9/2008
I would like to pursue the discussion re Omea in the context of Idea.
It seems to me that both programs offer some similar benefits, primarily being able to pull together data from different aps and ...
Omea Pro 3 - to be released
3/6/2008
Stephen, I also would like an answer to this question.
I have no need for Outlook, but would appreciate hearing the experience of someone who has used Omea without using Outlook.
Is there someone --...
Stephen, I don't recall Powerr Outlines and Insight being discussed here before, and am familiar with neither of them.
How do they compare with the two-pane outliners we normally talk about. Insight ...
Christoph, your comments and those of others beg a question.
Why do people spend time and energy reinventing the wheel, and indicate a lack of interest in doing the things that make even the basic wh...
Topicscape Server Down
1/22/2008
The Topicscape Server is down, making the company virtually unreachable by links provided through Bits du Jour, or anywhere else.
I suspect that the response to the Bits du Jour offer has been overwh...
NOOFACE -- Crimper's Delight
1/22/2008
Discovered today a site called http://nooface.net/topics.pl which has the nifty tag line "In search of the post-PC interface." Some of what is there will be of interest, I suspect to many of the folk ...
Casius, I have seen your recommendation for Maple before.
I downloaded it today because the price is right (grin).
While it might be good at what it does, my sense from a quick look at it is that is...
Bits 'n T-scape Testing My Patience
1/22/2008
Cassius, as I was reading your post, I was talking with Nico Westerdale at Bits du Jour about the delay in getting today's offer.
Apparently, when his company bought Bits some time back, it switched ...
XMind on Bits du Jour next week
1/22/2008
Quant, I saw on the T'scape site, see my last post (actually my first post; ah, the ambiguity of language), you had a conversation with Argey, and he sent you a complex T'scape.
Unfortunately, I coul...
Bits 'n T-scape Testing My Patience
1/22/2008
Has anyone else had trouble with Bits today?
Bits say their new product shows up at 2300h eastern time the night before.
So I waited until 0200 central time, and then went to bed productless, sleepl...
Stephen, thanks. Our minds are going in similar directions.I had thought of Axon, but it takes a while to get into it. My sense is that it comes later for presenting the knowledge -- but that the sora...
Thomas, thanks.
Of course, one can link web files to MI, and it gets around that problem.
I like MI's tagging better.
I do not like its lack of hoisting.
And re Archivarius, which I heard of for t...
I think you're right.
I did not consider IS because I do not have confidence in the future direction it is taking, and have not had the time to learn how to use the new version as I had pledged to Ma...
I just realize I did not mention my Info. Am not sure why that is.
I know that lack of hoist is one part of it.
And MyInfo doesn't play as nicely on the usb stick.
Also not crazy about its web capt...
Derek, I don't know the product well enough to say for sure whether the bet looks better than what has gone before.
It seems to me a little more user friendly.
But don't take my word for it.
Beta c...
Stephen, I am fortunate b/c the material is in my field so I can quickly set the structure, all the more so when cloning allows for multiple appearances of the same thing -- the structure need not be ...
Steve, actually it is the entry forms that intrigue me with Ask Sam -- but they gotta work.
And so does the report generating aspect or else you have just shot yourself in the foot(note) so to speak....
